The box is lined inside and out with aluminum foil and insulated with recycled newspaper for an air-tight seal. Non-toxic, white glue is used. The reflector is wood-framed to increase durability, prevent warping and increase reflectivity. The lid is held in place with a heavy duty wood support and locking hemp string to hold up against strong winds. The box and lid are coated with a waterproof membrane, then coated with recycled, exterior house paint. The double-strength glass is then sealed with a silicone seal. A sheet metal pan is custom made for the double bottom and painted black with hi-temperature paint to catch spills and increase efficiency. The oven is sized to be able to cook in quart mason jars or any pot up to 9 inches tall. The oven temperature reaches around 225-275 degrees on a normal sunny day. These cookers should last 7-10 years, at least, with good care. 12-14 hours are put into each cooker, and then they are set up for a few sunny days to dry, cure, and off-gas, leaving a non -toxic cooking environment inside. The price is $175.00. Custom made cookers are available.
