What do you think I will make with this?

[mash rookie]

My vacation has put me in a creative mood. I have a couple of new crazy ideas floating around inside the usually empty cavern above my shoulders.

I stopped into the dollar store and was looking around at the cheap crap and wondering what could I, what would I, make with this or that.

What if I told you that I bought eight of these?

Remember, I am an artist.

i just bought 4 of those myself but i can't say they are for making art . . .

[jake_leg]

piss artist?

[DAD300]

You can make yourself drunk if you fill each with alcohol and drink them!

[blind drunk]

What if I told you that I bought eight of these?

I'd say, lets drink beer ...

[Prairiepiss]

A beer pong table?

A&W Rootbeer floats?

Beer goggles?

Boat anchors?

That's all I got?

[Bull Rider]

A Chandelier?

Buy four more and you could make a clock...

JB weld them together and you could have a tall cool one...




Bull.

[AKAAB]

Kinetic or static?

[guittarmaster]

[Ayay]

Sight glasses? Ends or cylinders?

[mash rookie]

Kinetic or static?

Static. One grouping of six. One grouping of two.

A Chandelier?
Bull.

No. Funny you would ask that. Did Bushman tell what I do for a living?

LOL, no, but he would if I asked him...

[rubber duck]

Your going to paint a duck on them and the send them to me right?

[mash rookie]

Your going to paint a duck on them and the send them to me right?

No. But not a bad idea. I paid a $1 a piece. The yellow paint would cost more. I could fill them with rubber ducks, seal them and make my dog crazy when she cant get them open. That could be pretty entertaining after a few drinks.

[rubber duck]

Ya know that would make a youtub video that would get at least 10 million hits.

[Usge]

A fountain, or a lamp/light

[mash rookie]

Okay, maybe I threw you guys with the artist statement. Hint I did post this on HD ????

Still not going to paint ducks on them........

[blind drunk]

A glass art still ...

[NcHooch]

good ole Dollar Tree.............

A glass art still ...

Ding Ding Ding. We have a winner !!

Six stacked mug tall column. Each packed 60% with copper. Center drilled 1 1/4 " hole. Two inch copper washer with a 3/8" down comer tube in the bottom of each mug for reflux centering. They should act like a plate valve. Vapor forced past the edges while liquid drops to packing below. Kind of a copper packing flute? Crazy!

CM design. 3/8" condenser coil in the top mug fed from the product condenser.

Two mug shotgun product condenser. Probably won’t do a spiral. All ready did that. Still thinking there?

Thinking about exit cooling water pouring out of a tilted mug? Mug as a parrot? Hmm..... They are a dollar a piece damn it.

And this isn’t my really really crazy idea................ next month for that one.

Watch the rear view mirror Miles!

Actually I do. But that is not how this will be assembled. That would be way to much work. There is an easier solution without adhesives. (I have those too)

[mash rookie]

I know how you guys love pictures. I will start taking them today of the “MUG STILL” as I start to prep the parts. The cell phone pics seem to be okay and easier than getting out the SLR.

Today is booze play day in my shop. Going to knock up some all bran and some Rum. It will give me a chance to play with still parts while there. The next post will describe assembly and function.

I plan on having a functional crazy artistic still for under $100

[mash rookie]

Diamond ground the bottoms of the mugs for a flat gasket surface and drilled a 1-1/4" hole in the base of six of them. I will grind the tops to have a perfect mating surface. One hour work. Eight dollars. Its a start.

[Bull Rider]

Is this a still for muggles?

Hmmmm?


Bull.

[mash rookie]

Is this a still for muggles?

Hmmmm?


Bull.

LOL. I had to google "Muggles" I have never read Harry Potter. "Muggles, A non magical person"
It will be like magic when this baby makes 90% all built for under $100. Even a muggel will be able to make the magic elixer with it.

You kill me.Were do you get this stuff?

[guittarmaster]

hows the progress coming along? I'm waiting to how she turns out......

[Odin]

Guitarmaster,

Did anybody know that Cat's can't tell the difference between Cracked Corn and Kitty Litter?

I had a basin full of corn sittin in the garage for all of five minutes while I went inside. I came back out and found a pile of hot cat crap right in the middle of it.

Good Lord, that's hilarious!

So, did you scoop off the "spent" corn or are you running a special batch for an annoying neighbor?

Remember - don't smell, don't tell...
