How To Make an Aluminum Can Solar Air Furnace: Part 1/4
Posted by: | Comments
Learn the basics to building a lasting, efficient, aluminum can-solar air furnace, step by step. This short video series takes you from establishing a proper frame size to various methods of ‘finishing’ your furnace for both aesthetic and weather proofing purposes. The total cost of this project was about $30.00. The beer cans are recycled, the glass is salvaged from an old solarium, the aluminum cladding , insulation, and the lumber used for the frame work is all salvaged material from a construction site., and the DC fan is salvaged from an old pc. Spray paint and high heat adhesive/tape were the only materials purchased; a complete material list is available in the video. A solar air furnace is a great way to contribute to the thermal mass in any home, providing the sun is shining and the furnace(s) is facing it, and this video is a great tutorial to show both skilled DIYers as well as beginners, how to accomplish it; tho a word of caution to those with little to no experience with power tools – seek the aid of an expert. Of course, creative thinking could also open a door for ‘substitutes’ to power tools

Aluminum Downspout Hot Air Solar Collector Construction
Posted by: | Comments
Detailed descriptions of the construction of two aluminum downspout hot air solar collectors. The original was built by me, Scott Davis, and it works well, but then Scott Smith built bigger and added some really nice enhancements to collect a lot more solar heat! Scott is pulling 160F air from his down spout collector with lots of air flow and a better than 60% efficiency performance!

How to remove silicone sealant from painted aluminum?
Posted by: | CommentsI bought an older motor home that had some water leaks that were repaired by the previous owner. The problem is the clear silicone sealant that he used on every seam all the way around the vehicle looks terrible and I want to replace this. What is the best way to remove the old silicone without removing the paint from the sides of the RV?

are Uhaul trailers Aluminum or Steel?
Posted by: | CommentsAre Uhaul trailers aluminum or steel? We have several trailers for our business, and occaisonally we run out of trailers (we don’t rent them or anything, its for traveling to conferences and trade shows). Our corporate policy is that we can’t display other business logos. One of the guys I work with suggested we get a uhaul trailer and throw up big magnetic sheets (like what they use for vinyl) to cover up the Uhaul logos. This would of course work if they are steel, but not if they are aluminum.
does anyone know, or do we need to go to a uhaul and try it out?
Years ago we purchased the black cast aluminum furniture called “Chandler” patio furniture from JCPenny. (you can still see it on their website by looking up the word Chandler). The problem has been that if you touch it, it colors everything black, like a very inky newspaper. We’ve tried to wash it twice a month and wax it with auto wax at the beginning and end of every season like most websites say, but have never been able to correct this problem. We’ve had more than one person tell us that if we seal it with a spray sealant, it will just chip off and take bits of the powdered coating off with it. We love the furniture otherwise, but would like to know how best to take care of it. We would appreciate any genuine advice that correctly addresses this problem. Thank you!
