Describe a way to distill saltwater.

Answer Heat the saltwater in an enclosed metal pot with a tube coming out of the top. Run the tube to a receptacle. The steam will be the evaporated and condensed pure water free of salt.

You cannot get the salt out of the water, but you can steam out the freshwater. All you have to do is build a collection device for the freshwater steam.
