A few years back I took apart my original solar wax melter to rebuild as a steam-powered version. The original worked well enough, but it just didn’t have the capacity I wanted. Now I’ve reached the point where the expensive of the electricity to generate the steam is just too much and I’m going back to solar. So, reusing some parts again, taking as much as possible from the scrap pile and redesigning the entire thing, this is what I’ve come up with:
The black tray needs another coat of paint and I need some latches to lock the door down, but otherwise I think I’m done. It must be time for a test drive.
