That does look pretty cool and simple!
Go ahead and test it with your still and when you perfect it send the product my way! ( not the pump ) LOL!

You notice Scott honed right in on the home brew thing, huh ?
Am thinking of making one for 'pressurized' water on the boat..had a flexible bladder that I was going to use for freshwater and pressurize with one of those small auto shut off tire inflators, but that's going to be used as a holding tank now..

LOL, true thing..turns out i can't use it for other than freshwater anyway, there's only one 1 1/2" fitting and two 3/4" ones on it and I can't modify it to add another 1 1/2". So back to figuring out how to stuff a 6 gal PAR minitank under the head area..
