- A funky-looking DIY Solar Dehydrator. Proudly made in New-Zealand using only recycled and salvaged materials. Sharing how we made this solar dehydrator and some of the ideas behind it.
Sorry! No footage of the building process as I forgot to film that... Have to get used to actually recording things that we do...

When I was watching the other video I was immediately fascinated by the solar dehydrator so I'm glad you dedicated a whole video to this! It's beautiful and I love how you used all the reclaimed materials to make it! I can't wait to hear about all the things you're able to dry in there! Thank you for sharing!
Really neat design here!
Thanks. I would say it scores more points on the beauty aspect than actually reaching high temperatures... Nonetheless, it works and you've got to start somewhere!
Nice design. I am currently working on a dehydrator myself. Using an old fish tank.
That sounds interesting! I'd be keen to see it when it's done (or the work in progress) if you were planning to upload a video of it?
What about exaust
Hi Abid,
do you mean how the air exists the solar dehydrator?
In that case, I talk about the air-flow design from about 4:00 onward. The cold air enters on the bottom, heats up and rises, and exits on the back end through the mesh cloth! Hope that answers your question.
