Default Anyone use biodiesel?

Hi all,
I've been reading a lot about biodiesel on the net and I'm wondering if anyone in this forum might make their own? If you do, then what is your experience with it like? What do you use? How long does it take? Performance? Cost?
Thanks!

I've only made a gallon of the stuff so far.
Its been too cold here in CNY.

I have about 275 gals of wvo to process. I been burning straight filtered wvo in the diesel tractor for a while now. It has to be above 65 or so to work straight. I like to run a mix also and works fine.

What is WVO? I have been running b20 and I like the way the truck runs with it. It is quiter and smoother. I think the first batch fouled my fuel filter a bit and made my milage drop. After the new filter I have been getting better milage with b20. And Cummins said B20 is OK for all Cummins trucks after 2002.
