Imagine This in the Microwave…
Honestly, that was the first thought I had when I saw a picture of this thing. High schoolers built this out of aluminum rods and cds.
Steve has had this idea of building a microwave so large we could stick a whole car in it and see what happens. I think this would be a good test of our big huge microwave idea…just a little stopover on the way to “oh man we just microwaved a car!”

The original site that posted this is not loading. I’ll bet all the referrals from Techeblog absolutely destroyed the server…even though it is a college site.
So unfortunately, I can’t read anything about it except for what’s on Techeblog. And that ain’t much.
We could totally do this though…maybe on a slightly smaller scale…especially given our preoccupation with microwaving things.

i think we could make somthing sorta like this, only using hot glue, cause its better for the microwave

how exactly is hot glue better for the microwave than aluminum?

hot glue probably is less likely to cause fire

well if we’re gonna use this giant cd ball to test out the giant microwave to microwave a car, we dont want the giant microwave to be destroied before we microwave a car!
