Here’s a video on how to make an emergency water filter backup from common household items. This DIY water filter is conveniently small so having a couple for backup is still quite easy to bring along.
Always follow traditional safety standards when handling or drinking water that might contain harmful bacteria or other pathogens.
it’s a mystery …

“I thought same thing…while thinking about with would you need the second cap it hit me. You can use the snug 2nd cap to push water thru the cotton faster. Least only thing I can think would make sense. I’m no pro tho and hope to find an answer posted. Nice catch tho 🙂 least I’m not the only one that bothered not explained.”

Good one.
misleading, only filters solids, not bad stuff..
Not, that’s why you use the tablets too.
Why would anyone looking to make something like this, just not buy one and save the time for other things? Filters are low cost. Paid $30 for my 500 Pure Easy. http://www.amazon.com/AGPtek%C2%AE-Soldier-Portable-Purifier-Healthy/dp/B009X4JI02
You’re making way too much money if you think $30 is cheap. The one shown here cost less than 10 cents. Now that’s cheap.
Thanks
Pretentious.
I’m going to try this and put it to the test under a microscope
