So... I've been a member of this site for a month. The day has finally nilly come where I can finally progress to manufacturing "Bender".
Waiting has definitely paid off!
I have been going to the scrap metal yard every Friday for 4 weeks and today they finally came up with the goods & had some 4" copper pipe! My mate and I saw it and snapped it up! A total of 3.6 metres cut in to 2 x 1.8 metre lengths.
We also picked up some small bits and pieces.
I previously bought 2 metres of 2" a previous week, and have 3 metres of 2.5" also I found at work in the scrap metal bin (score!)
My mate already had two CUB 50lt kegs, one of which, he has given to me for a boiler. The total cost of everything we have split for 1 person (me) was $94 for the following;
50ltr keg
1.8m of 4" pipe
3m of 2.5" pipe
2m of 2" pipe
Some 1", 3/4", 3/8", (there is more than is in the photo)
So next is time to decide the set up! Was thinking main product Bender would produce would be whiskey. Maybe a rum but depends on what setup rum needs.
I now I want to make it modular as I have plenty of 4" to go around. Any thoughts?
