Hi,
No to the chat, but it sounds interesting. More info?
I actually have an RV refrigerator that will work, just need the time to do it. Not sure if it has a charge.
EXCELLENT THINKING and great idea. Do you know how to make one from scratch.
Did you use to go …
Did you use to go on otherpower’s discussion board a few years ago? Anyway I want to see you make a solar ice maker, using amonia evaporation and a half pipe mirror
Build many of these …
Build many of these parabolics use a good metal holder in the focal point place your true glass fiber optic cable and you will have a extremely powerful light I don’t know if you would call it a lazer but it would be able to set what you touch it to on fire. Depending how well cable handles refraction is how many dishes you can use. Amount of dishes will determine power. Guaranteed to cook w/ pressure cooker from bottom. Might be the answer to your solar engine. Build some solar trackers plse .

Yes, the focal …
Yes, the focal point is a bit long, but it works. You can take two dishes 50 feet a part and talk softly into one. Another person can hear what you are saying clearly on the other end.

Hello, To get the …
o, To get the mylar to go wrinkle free I saw a website once where they held the mylar around the edges and had a small hole in the dish and sucked the air out which sucked the mylar film down evenly and taunt Don’t forget to pre aplly the glue. Great videos by the way. Thanks.
I think if the …
I think if the angle of the curve of the dish is followed, one could expand out the existing dish into a larger one, like you said yes.
you could use the …
you could use the dish that you got for free to mold a bigger dish
I used a dish …
I used a dish network satellite dish 18 in x 20 1/2 but my plexiglas was only 15 3/4 x 19 1/4 inches cause I didn’t have the big enough piece of plexiglas a mistake should have bought a large enough piece was anxious to do this.

yes, I can email you pics of it.
Can you email me …
Can you email me some photos of your project.
What dish did you …
What dish did you use for a mold. Please do a video, it would be neat to see.Satellite dishes are parabolic but shaping like a lens is better. Some solar bowl cookers over do the shape and make it almost a half a ball. This works but only 60% is active. For mirroring without wrinkles, cut into strips and apply across the shape. Pie cutting works, but strips are much easier. I will have links to the materials for lining on my website in a few days, it is pretty cost effective.
