    You are definitely on the right track- another vote for version 2.0!!!

    all glass condense water when completely covered. when you drill make sure you don't shuve it in like you did thats get stuck. always put on the drill full blast before drill this way you'll have a perfectly smooth drilling

    Distilled water absorbs minerals. I wonder what was being absorbed from the old beat up collection tray and the plastic collection cup. Use glass.

      Ray Sims you can use whatever materials you want he's giving you a demonstration so take it as such and don't slam everything he's showing you . he is showing you how if you and get in a desperate need for water these are things around your house that you can use .you want to make a really great one where is sits out and utilize it all the time then do exactly what you're saying make sure your pans or stainless steel. and all other materials are non-toxic to the best of your ability.

      Search the tube and think aquarium silicon sealer. If the fish can handle it, we can. It's worth it. This young man will, betcha! He shows how easy the basic's are, socks and all!!

      Ray Sims plus his plastic will leech harmful toxins into the water as well.

      Thats good to know if i ever have to make one i will use all glass or stainless but wait if its for cooking it should be non toxic

    nice ... is there a version 2.0. yet?
    btw tip when you set this up, you want to make it have legs/ support ( bottom) to not conduct heat away from your source. Could insulate the water area with foam or double the glass. These could greatly increase the effectiveness of using this.

    • @WaynesHowTo
      @WaynesHowTo  8 років тому +2

      I figured it might speed up the process by providing more surface area but if that doesn't work for you then that's fine whatever works best :)

    Before consuming your water boil 1/2 a cup completely off and check visually for any residue or left over minerals. There should be none if your setup is working properly.

  • @trader0108
    @trader0108 9 років тому +1

    Something similar to this should be built all along the California Pacific coast to help California overcome the present drought. Crops grow much better with distilled water than with processed treated water. Water does not need to be boiled in order to distill it. Possibly a vacuum pump also would help to increase the water volume output.

    @patiobird2626 8 років тому +2

    I used my used underwear instead of socks is that ok? . I also used my yard stick that you taught me how to make in one of your videos to make a larger scale of the distillery now I bottle all the water I make and store it in my basement to enhance it unique taste.
    Thanks again.

      Plastic would be better I think or like someone said to use glass but I don't think it would be easy to drill into a glass dish :(

    Just read about that it would be unhealthy to drink destilled water for a while, because there´s a lack of natural ingredients which our body normally needs.
    Do you know something about that and how this can be provided?

    • @Fred-O86
      @Fred-O86 8 років тому +5

      Forget all that crap you heard. distilled water is the purest form of water which is what your body needs. forget all that hullabaloo being said by mineral water bottling companies to make you buy their water. If it is minerals you are worried about, note that you get 99% from food. Get supplements if you have to but. i find rain and distilled water so refreshing and revitalizing.
