Ok I'm starting the forum after attempting an experiment in which i attempted to distill 3 cups of water through boiling. For those of you who don't know how to do this boil the water and collect the steam, this is distilled and purified water free of bacteria, Virus, Metal, and poison. I had to collect it using 2 pot covers and let the steam cool and collect into a bowl. To get a half a cup this way took me over an hour. The water in the pot is purified but not free of metal, poison and possibly virus. Though viral infection through purified water is unlikely we still don't know what we are dealing with and being able to drink water is a necessity. Now granted the distilled water tastes pretty good but how long would a gallon like this take? Most of us don't have a water distilling factory in our house, a purifier maybe but will purification kill virus? I wouldn't put my money on it. Now I do admit that this was my first attempt and I did it at home. Best place to try a field test.

I've also been studying fire for a number of years, and I know fire bad, but in a lot of cases fire good. Can't boil water without fire. And the tin can fire stove, awesome. Many things we have discussed on this site is simply wonderful. However, what happens when we don't have fuel. So many people want to soak the bodies of who knows how many Zed in gas and burn them until nothing is left. Well first off let me start by saying to get the temperature to incinerate something is very difficult so you will have to keep it burning to a while which will take fuel, time and release a lot of toxins into that area very quickly, all just as quickly eliminated really but a potential threat none the less. With the price of gas rising quickly, and the possibility of Z-day or another such apocalyptic dystopia becoming more real by the day, we have no other alternative but to prepare. But with gasoline becoming less of a convenience, how do many of us intend to set fire to things. Butane and Propane are options, So is Naphtha and Alcohol and Paraffin. But how long can those options hold out, and those options can't run certain things. Motors for example.

But is that technically true? Can a car run off of something other than Gasoline? The answer is yes Ethanol, most cars now a days are made to be able to use Ethanol or Gasoline. Which is cool because Ethanol can be made at home. It used to be called Moonshine but hey if someone can get wasted and 30 miles to the gallon I say more power to them. But few of us know how to make "moonshine" So I dedicate this thread to spreading the best and most effective ways to Distill Water, Burn 150+ lbs of anything, and you guessed it Making Alcohol. Now I urge you not to get drunk with this knowledge. I urge you not to go and burn your best friend to death. And I urge you to drink more water. So Let the topic begin. With ALCOHOL!
