wanna know why solar power has NEVER BEEN DEVELOPED?
Because it's ENERGY WONT BE A THING U COULD SELL to the SHEEPLE......
THe only thing u could sell is a mirror wich could be used for 100 or 200 years if u really care of it.

This method could be employed to build a foundry melting device.

I like this and many of your other vids but, not all of us are experimenters and a practical application would be useful. So, how about showing us how to build the fresnel solar oven including parts list. Thanks for the science.

Dan is making diet Slim Jims for those of you who are counting calories. You can find them on his website too. Or get the DIY kit, 1 lens and 2 Slims, on sale this week only, and make your own lo-cal shnecks.

Would it be possible to make a solar foundry that can be used for melting copper and aluminium for casting into ingots?

@GREENPOWERSCIENCE you mean you tried to melt the filament of a lightbulb with the lens?
Tungsten has a melting point of 3420 Celcius thats the highest melting point of any steel.
what is the highest temperature you ever get with a fresnel lens?. it would be very cool to melt some steel with a fresnel lens.
thanks for your answer.

@veryfuck Hi, A Fresnel Lens would be the best choice. I have tried a 20 sq ft lens but did not work except for a bulb filament. The 1/8" rod would not budge.
