Hi,
New to distilling, I have my own home bar and thought it would be great to make my own RUM, VODKA, BOURBON & SCOTCH.

You can even make a nice vodka on a pot. Sure, it takes more work. And more mash.

Welcome Blue
The best advice I can give is dont rush.....especially into buying a still....there are a world full of homebrew shop owners out there just dieing to relieve you of your hard earned......know exactly what you need before you buy.
Building your self is a good option
