making the smaller parabolic cooker?
by: Anonymous

Did you ever get a recommendation for the size yo should make your smaller parabolic cooker, for heating coffee or tea? I want to do one of those and am wondering what to do. I saw a page where someone made one from a lampshade that they said brought water to a boil in two minutes, but have not been able to find that page again. Thanks so much for any response.
best wishes from New Mexico

how to build Parabolic Solar Cooker made of printing plates
by: Paul Webb

looking like some of you like to now how i build the cooker. Well i make it very easy, instead of using cardboard with foil, I just cut out the printing plate to the size like it say ,here a link http://solarcooking.org/plans/DATS.htm
(no point in reinventing the wheel ) You may need to put wing on it so you can bolt them all together these are printing plates that are used in printing, easy to work with so you can cut with scissors,and bend on the end of a table ,and all you need to put it together is a pack or two of very small nut and bolts .You need to find a nice printer that will give you, or let you buy very cheap the plates to build this cooker. I used 4 sheets.
Hope that all helps
If you need to talk more just skype me on sat_chit_ananda1

Dear Mr. Webb,

Your oven looks great! Do you have written instructions you could share with me? Is there a particular gauge of aluminum you would suggest?

I have been fascinated with Australia since I was in high school. In what part of Australia do you live? My husband and I live in SW Florida and love warm water and the tropics. If we were to take a 'Holiday,' as you say, where would you suggest we go? I was thinking of Brisbane or Perth.

Thanks, Kate
