New Use for Old Satellite DISH

[Scott Greczkowski]

In the past we have seen other uses for old satellite dishes, from making bird baths to making roofs for gazebos.

But have you seen this? How about using that old dish to make fresh water?

They are a few years behind.
They built a power plant about 2 years ago with these concentrated cells in CA.

That's AWESOME! lol.

Some older large fiberglass dishes really aren't worth salvaging anymore, so they might as well be used for something else.
