condenser size

[Fiddleford]

hello all i just got to put together my first 5 gallon still, its a keg still its 2 feet tall and has a diameter of 8 inches I've also got a column on it about 5 feet tall and a diameter of about inch and a half.. now the thing I'm looking at in my condenser its maybe 19 feet or more? but its a 3mm diameter which is tiny but I'm not gunna be running the thing more then the thickness of a pencil led. its a worm in a 5 gallon bucket, for the first few runs I'll be using just fire and clay till i can get my gas set up and I'm not to keen on drilling a hole in the side of this keg just yet to use electric. I'm really posting here to ask the better experienced if I can get away whit the condenser I got till I can get my hands on a pump or some thicker pipe, if its a yes but I'll have a hard time I'm stubborn enough to deal with a hard time on sick of my tiny 1.25 gallon still its bugs the hell out of me having to run 20 gallons through the thing its takes 3 days and the electricity it uses is ridiculous. i will appreciate any insight and tips or anything on this thing if you want pics of the rig just ask

Don’ use that small size tube for your condenser . It is highly likely to gt blocked and then your still will become pressuruzed and explode .

For this reason we recommend a mimimum size of 1/2” . Some guys have got away with 3/8”but only on sugar washes .

Do not use it !

I sort of figured so, i may be able to gather some material and get some half inch pipe I was hopeing i could get away with it since my only window of opportunity to use this still is this weekend I mean I got a liebeg made just for the thing but no god damn pump.. well I appreciate the help

You can run the liebig on tap water, direct the water onto the tomato patch. I am still doing that but will have alternatives soon.
