Continuous Stripping still?

[edge]

Time is precious and there never seems to be a lot to work with my hobbies.

While I know that I'll be able to find time for a spirit run occasionally, I would like to strip in short sessions.
My question specifically has anyone tried something akin to a tube flash boiler?

My thought would be a pipe of relatively small diameter ( 3/4 inch perhaps) heated with propane.
It would be attached to a column at an angle with a thermocouple at the end near the column.

Two leibig condensers, the first for pre-heating the mash to X degrees and the second for final product condensing ( perhaps a shotgun ).

My thinking is the thermocouple cycles a pump when the max temperature in the boiler reaches say 98-99 degrees ( 10-20%).
(It would most likely just be maintaining a flow.)

The spent wash would overflow into the bottom of the column where it would drain to waste via a trap.
(The column is really only needed as a drain mechanism and to prevent puking into the condensers.)

I'll assume this is not a novel idea so would also assume that it has been tried and either failed or it worked and deemed too much trouble for most folks.

I am ONLY trying to be able to make short work of stripping runs and plan on a "normal" pot still for the spirit runs.
Mainly interested in rum. Probably making 5 gallon batches stripping every few days in short sessions and storing the low wines until time were available for the spirit run which may be many weeks away.

Thanks for any suggestions.
