Travis, how well has it been cooking after it got put inside? Allan -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Travis Creswell
Before we get told to stop telling stories I have got to tell this one... I have a solar cooker made by ZomeWorks. It's about 4' diameter reflector on stand with hole in middle and you set your pot in the hole. I used to keep it on my patio until I came home one day and noticed a 1" deep x 1" wide x 8" long scorch burned into one of the 4x4 posts. Apparently the wind had blown the cover off and moved the reflector into just the right position. How my entire porch didn't catch on fire and take my house with it I don't know but needless to say it got put inside from that point on.

I used to keep a gallon jug of water in my work truck for drinking. One day I noticed it had magnified the sun and burned a long hole in the seat. I am lucky it did not start the truck on fire!
