Distilling essential oils

I'd like to try this, using herbs from the garden, and citrus peels. Has anyone else ever tried this?...I guess I need a still, but what sort? Confused

Today is the traditional day of the year to start off dandelion wine. May well be more productive than a thimble full of lavender oil Wink

Shocked Oh please stop it nanster!!!

He has by the way, two gallons of strawberry/summer fruit wine quietly fermenting, as well as a large bucket of something I can't identify.

I need to go nettle gathering again this week so perhaps some dandelions should be included in the forage........
