Good day to ya all. Well I have been reading allot about distillation lately. Man can you guys build masterpieces,Tip of the protective headgear to you all, well done. I have been toying with valve design after reading about a post where a member drilled the sieve plates holes to large and it got me to thinking about this idea. Trying to learn more here from those who may have made one. Any way here is the concept.

3 inch type L copper column 6 plate spaced 5 inch apart with 9 inch long shotgun dephleg. 24 inch x 3/4 ID - 1 " OD leibig condensor

The penny's have to be older than 1984 US or Can.
The wire was 14 G
The hole size is 7/16. 7 holes per plate
valve max open is 3/16.
Over flow pipe is 3/8 ID
cup is 3/4 OD

So what do you think will it work?
