Thanks. Been looking for a selfmade option though.

How homemade? Cause if you want to go all the way and make a water filter from scrap with sand, powdered charcoal and all that, the knowledge is out there...

yes you know, some sophisticated plan to do this maybe. Finding knowledge and inspiration is why I asked in the first place and if you have some to share I'd appreciate it

Some bricks, mortar and silver and a cistern below groundwater level. Bricks filter the water, silver kills the bacteria.

If a well and not below groundwater level. 2 chambers input the water in one and let it percolate through the brick and mortar.
