Hybrid Column for flavored spirits

I'm so ignorant I don't even know what questions to ask, LOL! Just spending the summer trying to figure out my ass from the kettle. My progression of stilling
It's hard not to want to build a flute, readin flute talk and seeing all that copper and glass that can pee whiskey from 1 pass! Some have argued that plates make a less rich whiskey and a packed column is the way to go.
The moral of the story is I would like to build a single pass column that can output about barrel strength ABV, but want to pretend a flute cost too much to build and isn't worth it. Plus you can adjust the packing to manipulate flavor, proof, and speed....
