assembled this contraption from various junk. Main piece is the antenna dish covered in aluminum tape. It actually works on a sunny day with minimal clouding from roughly 10 am to 2 pm. I looked at those solar cooking boxes, but they require way more time, like 3 hours atleast. Any good ideas how to improve upon this? Put the stand on the other side, so if doesn't throw a shade on the reflector dish. In pic rel I just tested a slice of toast, already fried an egg in a large black uncoated iron pan and boiled water in a metallic pot which took quite long, wife didn't let me paint the downside black. Had to dig trough some trash until I found an old pot.

Concentrated sun beam on a small black container, what else could I improve?
