Solar & wind powered clothes dryer !!

I am wondering how many people in the Western World would be interested in never again having to use "plug in" powered clothes dryers??

How many will be interested in simple plans to easily manufacture a "Solar" or "Wind Power" clothes dryer?? No more high power bills/accounts.

I have been researching this phenomenon for years and have struck Gold.

Gordon.

    I assume you are referring to a clothes line.

    Back in the day before mechanical dryers, families would dry their cloths on a cloths line. The cloths line would be a rope placed between two poles. The rope and poles would be in a yard outside the home. The cloths line would utilize both solar and wind. Amazing how history teaches.

    Its effective method, especially if you have a clear sky so the UV from sun light can sterilize the clothes. Also we can improve the drying by hanging up the clothes up on the roof or a higher location where the wind can blow it easily.

    I confused my sister when I told her I had a solar clothes dryer, she came over to look at my clothes line and asked how it worked. I couldn't believe she didn't get the joke.
