Welcome to the thread, we are glad you are here.
I tried to find a plan for a solar oven that could be made by anyone, and posted a few.
You have made one and would you please stick around, as all of us should know how to build an instant solar oven.
Whoops, you were making a regular oven, that is fine, as most of the folks here may not know about ovens that sit on stoves.
I still have part of one, that the stove pipe ran through to heat/cook in it, it is about 2’ square and 16 or so inches tall.
So much to learn and so little time.
Before Y2K, the Mormon list/group talked about how to make a candle that was a stove.
They took a large coffee can, filled it with wood shavings, packed down [as I recall], poured parafine wax over it and I don’t remember if the used a cheap candle or a regular candle wicking material, in the center of the can.
They used a beer can open to make 4 holes in the top, so air would go in to keep it burning.
One lady said that one can had furnished light, cooked dinner for about 6 people and kept them warm until time for bed.
I would be very interested in what you know, as I was never a boy Scout.
The best part of growing up as a Scout, and then leading my 3 sons in Scouting is the Motto “Be Prepared”.
There are so many aspects of Scouting teacings about self reliance utilizing the most basic of materials. Knots. building shelter. navigating by compass. teamwork. first aid. Not being wasteful with resources. Identifying edible plants and poisonous plants, insects ,animals. Basic survival skills.
