    We had porcupines at a kids camp in central lower Michigan. They used to chew through the varnished posts on the primitive cabins to get to the cedar or hemlock posts that made the buildings. They also consumed a regular diet of lead.
    2017- Started small-made 7 gallons. Long days & few nights on a 1x2 and turkey fryer.

    2018- Bought a 2x4 and built a small scale RO. 21 gallons.

    2019- moved up to 100 gph procon for my home built RO. Built a steamhood. About 220 taps and 21 gallons again.

    2020- 140 procon on the R0. Added a new mainline at my in laws. 330 taps for 24 gallons, sold excess sap.
