How To Make A Water Distiller For $5

video How To Make A Water Distiller For $5
In a survival situation, water is life. And when the only water you have is contaminated, distilling is a method that can still purify water to make it safe for drinking. However, many distillers are either very expensive, very large, or both.

In this video, I give you a look at how to make your own distiller, that is small enough to fit in your bug out bag, for less than $5.

Very good idea but, please, please wear eye protection and also, water distillation will kill all living "things" in the water and will leave behind the solids but, volatile chemicals will also evaporate with the H20, ending up in the drinking water. After you distill, pass the water thru an activated carbon filter which will absorb the remaining bad chemicals. Plenty of info. on this on the internet. Research water purification methods and find which methods reduce or eliminate what chemicals and use them in conjunction with one another.
