Frost on the Pumkin

[Zuma]

Getting chilly and the sun has lowered enough to
get my solar heaters up and running through most
of the daylight hours.
They are not as pretty as I would like but they work
great and save me big bucks. The fan sucks the hot air
down and blows it out at my feet. toasty.
The thermostat is at the top.

You owe me Jojo

I had thermal pane sliding glass doors left over from my contracting days.
I had left over corrugated  metal roofing. Also some treated 2X6's
The fans were also left over as well as the vents. I cut 11/2 inch spacers
from some 3/8 inch steel pipe.
First I painted the metal flat black high temp.
I removed the siding.
I screwed a 2X6 box with short legs together and routed a rabbit to fit the glass into.
I set the box against the wall squared it and marked out the inside.
I marked out the holes for the vent and fan and cut them out in the metal
and wall, Then wired for the fan, thermostat, and on off sw
The fan was already in an 8" sheet metal duct. I made a tube from sheet metal
 for the vent and tested the fan operation.
I then screwed the metal through drilled holes and through the spacers to the wall.
I un-screwed one side of the box which was also painted flat black on the inside.
I installed the glass and screwed the box to the wall.   
Caulked and painted.
When the fans fail I hope to replace them with a solar rig.

What happened Jo jo did you spend
your vitality on the condor thread?
Or are you busy with a project that
every sensible human can capitalize on.
