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
 
permaculture is largely about replacing oil with people. And one tiny ad:
