Well, it has been almost a month since I did this experiment, but I am posting it now, mostly because I want to get the pictures out of my iPad!

Painting the "Vessel"

The oven, waiting for the vessel.

The vessel, ready for the oven, this time it has water in it. Just to see how hot it gets...

The vessel, wrapped in plastic, in the oven.

Same thing, different day, in a black bag... The black bag didn't work as well.

The vessel in the clear bag, this should be a few steps up, but I cannot rearrange the pictures...

This is the vessel, I just wanted to heat water. This is a candy thermometer, but it is what I had... The water was at 100 degrees. Not bad for an early spring day.

So, this is what I have learned...It has to be hot for this to work, and that is great in the summer, to save on using the inside oven, that would heat up the house, and make the need for eh AC even higher... But, in a survival mode, in the winter... This will not help. We are boned! LOL

Next, we work on a Hobo Stove!
