Make your own solar powered oven

It seems so simple to make your own, I searched "make your own solar powered oven" and came up with quite a variety of instructions. I can't believe how inexpensive it is to make! I'm going to try, I can imagine the savings over cooking with propane.

Here's one link that was interesting: http://www.instructables.com/id/SOLAR_OVEN/

That's an interesting project, but don't you think there may be a concern for spray painting the inside of the oven?

There's another thread here somewhere about chemicals being given off from some paints and finishes.

Hmm, that's an interesting idea. I had not really considered making one myself. :?

Re: Make your own solar powered oven

That's great idea, the instruction is simple and easy to follow. Just wonder how long it will take to cook using the oven. Will it be far longer than cooking using an ordinary oven? Anyway, that's worth a try.
