Default ? home made starters

Is it possible to make a starter with just flour (KA) and water? I've
been trying to do so for about 4 days now. I mixed 50g each of water
and flour. Let it sit for about 24 hours. Dump some out and feed
again with 50g water 50g flour. I do get activity although I wouldn't
say I get a doubling in size of starter between feedings. Am I
wasting my time or will I eventually get something I can use to make
some bread rise?

(And yes, I know I can buy a tried and true starter. I just wanted to
do a little experimenting
Thanks
Chris
