As for being legal from what I have found it is in fact legal in limited amounts and as long as not sold. [Reply]  [No Email]

Lots of stainless possibilities when you think about it although they are all hypothetical. Stills or any part of one is illegal unless you have a permit. Was at our local scrapyard years ago when the sherrif came by and had a chat with them about a worm and cap hanging on the wall. Shear or jail so it got sheared. A young feller might not know what it is but an old timer can spot still parts easy. [Reply]  [No Email]

Ya small amounts as in under 10 or fewer gal. Does not matter either way since where I live it would be hard to find if I had one any how [Reply]  [No Email]
