I kinda there myself. I'm pumping $1.90 dino diesel, and it costs me about $1.15 or so to make my own. That's with free WVO. So even though I can save .75 cents or so a gallon, that's not as attractive as when pump diesel was pushing $4.50 a gallon.

It's kinda made me lose interest in being aggresive to get free WVO from the locals.

So right now, my BioPro 190 is sitting idle. Might make someone a deal.
