part 2 of a 2 part podcast
Continuing the live event about the new playing cards
Paul feels better about the new cards than the first batch. There's been more consultation on the words and he likes the art.
Before they move on from the water heater, Paul makes the point again about the potential danger of pressurized systems.
The next card (#5) is the solar food dehydrator with rocket assist. This has been a big hit, and much more popular than the old solar dehydrator. It also has rocks inside it to store heat. It dries food faster which makes higher quality dried food. The glass angle is optimized for fall rather than summer.
6: The hay box cooker. Samantha likes the hay box cooker. There's a suggestion that hay boxes could work well with the Lorena, if you have additional pots for the Lorena, you could boil them up and put them in hay boxes. Paul's hay boxes are actually insulated with wool, but you can use any insulation. Actual hay isn't commonly used now. Combining the rocket stove with hay boxes would make a really simple fully off grid cooking setup.
7: The automatic backyard food pump. Although there's more development to do it's already showing much promise.
8: Ferd and Gert. The story of Ferd and Gert on a playing card! Unlike all the other characters Ferd wears shoes and a tie.
The email list is broken right now thanks to bad guys, so people need to help spread the word. They finish off by listing the rewards for the $20 backer level.
