From Solar Cooking

Hi, I am in the process of making a solar cooker from cob (a mix of clay,sand and straw) on a wooden frame. The project is going extremely well. My method of making a parabolic mirror is not one I have seen elsewhere. All anyone needs is some wood posts, some nails and some string to form the parabola. I was totally surprised as to how easy it is to do! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06V1uLgPWyY shows the video of it and I will put in in simple form soon. Brian White Victoria Canada
