| I like the solar cooker design setup. I certainly have a lot of solar energy here in SW Arizona. I've been very busy with my seasonal work here and have been just lurking for awhile but I've noticed a lot of newbies to the forum. One word I might put in is don't spend too much time reinventing the wheel. Many of the people on this forum have spent a lot of time with PC and you can learn a lot from them. Also there is no quick fix as far as getting paper, making pulp or putting up walls. If you're afraid to get a little dirt on your hands and to expend some physical energy in the process PC will probably not work well for you. And as for mixers, as Ron Richter says, once you start actually building, even a small structure, you will want more volume and that is where the tow mixer really shines. It takes a tremendous amount of force to pulp paper or cardboard and electric motors or small gas engines will not hold up nearly as well or give you the capacity that the differential mixer , either towed or stationary will. They are really simple, sturdy and economical to build and use. |
