You can say what you like and calculate it all day long but it doesn't
change the fact that I consistently get 1.7ma from a LM317 with a 1K
resister. I have built 10 machines this way and everyone of them limit the
current to 1.7ma. I get approximately 10ppm in 3 hours consistently on all
10 machines. And my offer for the schematic includes the power supply and
the stirrer. And a full parts list including sources for the parts (some of
them hard to find such as the motor for $2.50 which is a surplus microwave
oven turntable motor stirring at 30 rotations per minute).
My process has no problems, it gives me the same product repeatedly.
And I wanted to tell you I felt insulted by your reply. It seemed an
attempt to belittle my offer to post my schematic (yeah its no big deal for
an electronics tech but there are lots of people on this list who are not),
and a false attack on my process. Instead of attacking what I said I
suggest you get an LM317 and see what I'm telling you is true.

You may have found one that works, but if you read the
specification, the minimum load current for the LM317 with 40V
differential is 3.5 to 10mA, and the LM117 is 3.5 to 5mA. The LM117
is better than the LM317, but neither device is guaranteed to work
outside the specifications.
No doubt you are making cs, since you are applying current. But many
people have posted discussions on the unrepeatability of their
process, and some even think the phase of the moon has some effect.
I think a lot of problems people have been having, aside from
variations in the purity of the distilled water, is the low voltage
normally used, and unreliable current regulation. Your circuit
certainly falls in this category.
