Very sorry for taking so long to get back to you, dataWizard;
I have been really bussy with my construction Co. lately. And have not had time to work on any of my projects.
I did manage to get an 8 foot diameter wheel and bend plastic pipe around it.
The solar distilation of gas does not work very well. 8 hours and less than a half ounce. I bought a pressur cooker in a thrift store. I will try to distill the gas wit it when I get some free time.
You have to boil the gas and then seal it off and have a vacuum develop.

I saw you planned to make a (large) Minto wheel on another site: Is your proposal to use distilled gasoline (petrol) as the fluid in such a wheel?
The idea of running Minto on gasoline but not consuming the fuel is clever, but haven't we established that Butane or Propane are better candidates?

Thanks for asking.
