Hi guys,

I've been looking to get somthing going regarding my own condenser and so I just got myself some 2" copper, I only asked for one but i got two meters by accident!! Now I'm just trying to work out the best way to go about it. Seeing as though I'm just starting off constructing, I have very few tools but am happy to get a brutane torch and some solder and have a track. For a beginner,

Would a Slant plate Boka or a Double Reduced Boka be more suitable? With a column of over 1.5m high, what sort of quality+rate could I expect? Anything over 93% at 800+mls an hour I'd be happy!

Thanks and kind regards,

Mitch.

Both the slant plate and DR bok are extremely simple, but for a first I'd go the slant plate route if I were you.

They're a bit cheaper, parts wise & less time consuming to build :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Yeah that's what I was thinking mate. Only thing is I don't know where to get copper sheeting from the make the slant disks after many hours of reading and looking. Could it be nothing more than a hammered out flat piece of tube?

You got it :handgestures-thumbupleft:

I think this may be the way to go for me. Keep it simple stupid!!

IMHO you'd be better off doing the double reducer model, it's just easier to get everything plumb for a novice builder, the design you show is very similar but just a tad more fiddly to build.

Use this one if you want something nicer looking than the slant plate job.
