Our daughter built a solar grill with discarded parts we gathered. I helped her on it a bit, but largely, she did the project. She was really excited with the first test!
You can watch the flaming results....


We hope to make a solar oven next.

It is a 36" wide x 24" tall Hughes Net satellite dish. Aluminum foil tape ($7 for a large roll at Harbor Freight) was our only expense in building the cooker. She is having fun with the cooker!
Thanks
 
Why does your bag say "bombs"? The reason I ask is that my bag says "tiny ads" and it has stuff like this:
