The boiler I've designed for it is 1.5m total height, and the still will be set up using a scissor lift, we're also looking at building a viewing platform for it too.

EDIT: Oh and if I've done my maths right it should be producing well in excess of 25 L/PH of azeo :))

Shit.....Don't tell Don :shhh: :shhh: :shhh:


He's got the boiler for it..... just not the shed. :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:
But wait.... the roof could be extended and...... :think: :think: :D :teasing-tease:

He's also been awful quite of late... too much of his product from the 8"?

Yeah Don's just busy guys and hasn't run a still in 6 months or more, we still regularly chat on the phone though most weeks.

He'll be more active once the wet hits & business slows for sure :handgestures-thumbupleft:

OK all,

We're back to business as normal and I've caught up on the weekends emails :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Today I'll be updating the web store as it appears some of our stock levels arent quite right, and there's a bunch of gear I have here that's not even in there yet 8-}

We have tri clamp pipe in sizes from 3/4" up to 4" in various lengths 100mm to 600mmt long hat I need to get in there, plus some other new goodies.

Busy busy days for FSD, we've never experienced such demand and are actually looking at ways we can have a walk in service for local members, but we'll see what our best options are there before we make a final announcement on that one.

Great times ahead for both us and our customers :happy-partydance:

...just been updating quite a bit of other gear previously out of stock, if you've been waiting on certain things now's a good time to grab stuff..... the way things are going they wont be lasting long.

Stills are going nuts, heaps of pot stills in stock but bubblers there's a backlog of around two weeks for those pre ordering.... the longer you wait to pre order the longer the wait is getting, these things are going off!!!!!

We're starting to struggle with the volumne of traffic and your patience is greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much for all your support ^:)^

Good job Mr & Mrs Mac!! Well done on fostering such an impressive business in such a short amount of time.

All this talk of back logs and pre orders makes me glad I got mine before the rest of the world realised how awesome this gear is.

Honestly Frothy we thought this would be our quiet time of the year so we bought a 4WD & van to get away for a week or so, but no such chance yet, but in a few weeks we're going weather we're busy or not..... 3yrs of this and I'm in desperate need of some R&R :handgestures-thumbupleft:

I never thought that first copper pot I built 5 yrs ago would've ever lead to this 8-}

Many are glad, a few arent..... but that's their problem.

Hoping to have some fairly exciting news & products turning up in coming weeks, more aimed at the top end and not the cheap cheap cheap others are parroting on about elsewhere :teasing-neener:
