Hey guys,
Finally cracking the shits with commercial "hbs" distilling setups so I thought I'd have a crack at making a 1.5m total length 2" Boka. Anybody have a good idea of where to get copper of that size? So far I'm not having a great deal of luck!

Fantastic! Thanks for the help gentlemen. Does a 2" Boka sound a little too ambitious for a first though? I used to be into spud guns before brewing. Not the pvc and hairspray variety but 400psi pneumatic precision machined piston valved 1000fps variety! :D I'm more than used to working with copper apart from soldering but the amount of information around should make it easy, plus I have a few friends who are plumbers so I think I'm set! I can see the whole thing complete costing about 150ish. Sound like a ball park figure?

I don't think it's appropriate to post plans here.

Hi Mate,
Did you end up finding a good place to supply copper? I attempted to try TradeLink at Browns Plains today to see if I could find some 1/4" Copper Pipe. They dont do it... :-(
Regards,
Matt
