ODs Magic Flute Still COMPLETE STILL DRAWINGS?

Post by ratfink »

Hey all,

Im getting ready to start another build, this time being ODs Magic Flute Column Still.

My appologies up front if I appear to be complaining. However, due to the very nature of Forums and how they save info, FIFO by date it makes it impossible to find COMPLETE drawings of ODs Magic Flute Still.

Years ago, I was able to find ODs Magic Flute and Bokabobs designs/drawings in one place on one page website. Now I find pieces, sections, of Internals of thinks like the Bubbler Plate. Oddly it has always been an issue and Im not sure why? The Site Search doesnt work
So I cant find info that way.

I have no issue with Theory, Building, Design, as I own a Metal Fabrication and Machine Shop. I have the skills. I want to build a 30 gallon Still with double MF Columns. I would be happy with the original sketched drawings as that website with all that info was in one place and provided complete examples. The Mash Tanks are just as important, as well as any added Condensers, etc... It would be great to see a Complete set of Plans from start to finish.

Most likely the issues surrounding the Search Feature for the Site not working is a problem and I am sure this question has been ask many times prior. I did go to the Still Designs section, however there is no organization of what designs, drawings, plans go to what. Unless a person is not familiar with anothers specific design, mods, versions, then how would they know? I was hoping to find the drawings/designs organized accordingly by name, Boka Designs, Magic Flute Designs, Pot Still Designs, etc....

Again, my sincetest appologies, any help would be appreciated.
Best Regards

Good luck, you cant attach shit to a PM. This prevents using the forum to distribute nefarious things like porn and keeps it safe for the site owner. You'll need to reach out via PM and then share the PDF over a private email between two parties. I tried sending a couple of pictures of a wiring diagram via PM a while back and was unsuccessful.

Are you using the OD drawings as homage to OD or to make a great plater?

I think there have been lots of improvements in the design of players since but if it's about getting that OD like then go for it.

I'll be looking for your build thread.

Good point SP, I used the basic dimensions then picked out stuff I thought would work for me from other build threads.
