Official Solar Oven Throw Down Photos

Every year, all the engineering freshmen at the University of Arizona participate in the Solar Oven Throw down and compete to see who can build the most efficient, most precise, and cheapest oven out of household materials. This oven is made of cardboard, duct tape, Mylar, black paper, painters tape, and aluminum foil. We won second in our class as well as an award for teamwork.
