Hi All
 
Every time I need a solar wax melter I don't have one
because I just haven't had time to build one.  Ya know that
story.  I end up setting a bottom board and a shallow super
on some cinder blocks then lining it with aluminum foil
forming a catch pan.  I then add a queen excluder and
another shallow super and line this with paper towels.  Add
combs and cover with a glass or Plexiglas pane.  In summer
it only takes bout an hour to melt down combs.
