You may also want to check out a documentary done a few years ago about a m
oonshiner named "Popcorn". He goes through the whole process and it is rath
er interesting.

Gary,
Stills during prohibition were made, not manufactured, as far I know of. M
y great grandfather had one. If you can send me the pictures of the parts
you have, I can tell you how to put it back together again for a display.
I would also check with the state. I believe it is illegal to have one unl
ess you have a hole in the bottom of it so it can't be used. These laws
may have changed, I'm not sure.

Our local historical society just acquired a Prohibition era still. Two pr
oblems: 1) it is completely disassembled; and 2) I have no idea as how to r
eassemble it. I do have one advantage. It was not workshop built but was
purchased someplace. I can find nothing to indicate the manufacturer. I a
m open to any suggestions as to where to start in my quest.
