How to Make a Solar Still – Emergency Water Collection!

Life-saving DIY trick for survival, camping or off-grid situations! This simple solar still uses the sun’s heat to turn dirty ground moisture into clean drinking water. Perfect knowledge for emergencies!

Step-by-Step Guide:

Dig a hole in sunny ground (about 1m wide & 50cm deep)

Place a container in the center

Cover with plastic sheet (clear plastic works best)

Anchor edges with dirt & rocks

Put a rock in the center to create a low point

Sun heats the ground → condensation forms on plastic

Water drips into the container (use tube to direct flow)

Pro Tip: Add green leaves or wet cloth inside for more moisture. One still can produce 0.5–1 liter per day. Always purify collected water if possible!
