CERC Green Solar Oven

Step 3 The First Cut

We are about to begin.  Safety should be the first thought!  We will be using razors to cut most of the cardboard.  You may use scissors as well but most people find it more difficult.  Always remember to ask for help when you need it.  Always cut away from your body or hands so that if the blade slips, it will not strike you (or anyone around you).  Also, again remember that this is a real oven which within minutes reaches temperatures that can cause significant burns.  Treat it like a real oven when opening to recover cooked items. 

USF and CERC present this as a guideline by which to build your own oven.  We do not assume any responsibility or and assume no liability (expressly stated or implied) as to the performance or safety of this project.  Please exercise caution when attempting to build and use this oven. 

Now, lets get started.
