Greetings Lilly..I just wanted to tell you how much I admire your skills..you put most men to shame, I like your self sufficient personality and your positive attitude...keep up the good work ..
Many years ago I used to dry my oregano on a screen. I may like the hardware cloth you use here better - easier to clean, faster to dry, less chance of rot from moisture. I especially like that once you build the first one, all you have to do for a second one is snap your fingers. I'd like to learn how to do that trick! 😂 I love your space-saving stacking system. Very clever. Very neat, clean, organized appearance. Thank you Lilly! Hugs and kissies for Amy!
Lilly is ..creative, innovative & intelligent.. full of energy and always wanting to share.. you are so 👌!! Keep'em coming! Thanks for sharing.. Be Safe!
I love with this! my mom has been wanting a drying rack for all the flowers she has in her garden and you really gave me encouragement to be able to build it for her! thanks so much
I especially like how you built the frame dimensions to accommodate the wire dimensions. When I design, I like to look at the materials first and then build so the steps to modify the materials are minimized. Very impressive. Thanks.
thx Lily... for the last few years my wife and i have a smallg garden but sometimes it grows more food than we can eat before it goes bad. I thought i would start doing this then i came across your vid - perfect timing. We live in Las Vegas so rain isnt much of an issue 😎 and drying only takes a short time.
I think she did... while she was assembling the rack, it looked like the fine mesh was on the bottom rack... it is absolutely correct that the outer pieces should be made bug resistant, or there is no point. It should also be noted this is an air drying rack, not a "dehydrator". There are also a number of ways to add a solar component to allow for faster drying. Air drying racks do not work so well in high humidity environments such as the American Southeast... With a proper solar component, you have heated air currents which allows for drying moister foods including jerky or moist fruits such as melon chips, or pineapple. Living in a high humidity area (such as say the American Southeast) I have not had much luck with trying to dry anything more than herbs using an air drying rack. On the other hand I have friends in the Southwest who can use the same design to dehydrate tomatoes.
? Unless I'm missing something or a step you did, and I didn't see it, What's stopping the flies from entering from the bottom, I didn't see a screen on the bottom?
Do you have a real good recipe for some dried beef? Maybe the next video could be about that along with using the dehydrator rack and all you talk of in this video? I love this video, the idea to dry with a food drying rack.
I am 63, my Grandmother dried apples by cutting them up and putting them on a sheet out in the drive way, going out often and turning them, folding them up in sheet and bringing them in the house at night doing same thing next day till dried. Later screens in car, front seat to back with windows rolled up and in sun.
Best drying video ever. Simple and functional.
Wonderful. Proud of you girl. Men are so into tech building, like they are building a whole house. Simple is wonderful. Love it.
You never cease to impress me. What an awesome build!
Good and very useful idea, and something everyone can do👌
Hellllllllll yea ! Im going to make this
Brilliant! I will do that too. The extra wood on the side of the top layer should help keep it in place. Thank you for the great idea.

Very good role model for girls and women!

Großartig gebaut liebe Lilly! Komfortable Höhe, bestimmt sehr funktional! Erstklassig!
Really nice
Muchísimas gracias, saludos.

She is very design for best utility conscious. Teaching how to plan, not just how to do.

You make everything you do look easy.
I went to my shed and snapped my fingers and Nothing happened...
Thanks for another informative video.

I guess it's kinda off topic but does anyone know a good place to watch new series online ?
@Louie Khari I watch on flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@Calvin Lyle yup, I have been using Flixzone for years myself =)
@Calvin Lyle Definitely, been watching on Flixzone for months myself :D
@Calvin Lyle yup, have been watching on flixzone for since march myself :)
Do you have to worry about bugs coming up from underneath or should you put a sheet of the smaller mesh under the bottom rack?
Great question, I'k like to know the answer also.

Good idea 👍
I planned to build similar one but for herbs. Nice job!

Your grandmother was very clever. Screens in the car!
@@kele1264 Will still work now lol and car smells GOOOD LOL
A woman who likes to build things, uses power tools and has a workshop; I think I'm in love 😍 ❤
what are the dimensions of the individual racks? I am trying to decide what dimension of metal sheet to purchase. Thank you!
great project. I've grown celeraic, but never dried the root. Does it keep a good flavor when you rehydrate it?
🌺👍🌺👍🌺👍
2x2 frames?
Invest in a kitchen mandolin
Do you know that these Metals are full of machineoil? Thats very unhealthy.
How would the metal be full of machine oil? If anything it would have oil on it which is easy enough to clean off
The flies can still get between that mesh. lol. U messed up. hahhaha. U like a little fly larvae with ur fruit? lol
