I've not looked into that part of it yet, either on legal or hardware bases. I designed stills for separating crude oil as an undergrad, so that part is easy enough. How exactly to do a low-cost one I have to look into.
Regarding the law, yes, I have to look into that too. CA does permit small-scale production of wine (we have Zinfandel planted that will be fermented in the fall) and beers, but distillates may well be different.
