Ever thought about building a tarp‑and‑net shelter that actually feeds a fire using solar heat?

A tarp‑net shelter that feeds a fire with solar heat? I’ve seen folks line a tent with reflective material and set a tiny stove up, but the heat won’t keep a fire alive for long. Better to keep the fire pit simple, stack dry kindling, and maybe use a solar still to dry some extra wood. If you want to experiment, make a small, lightweight reflector and keep the stove’s vent open for airflow. Just don’t spend the whole night trying to cook your dinner off a solar “oven.”

Yeah, but imagine the paradox: a fire that *uses* sunlight to stay lit, then spits out heat that keeps the tarp from melting—like a living sun‑hunger. It’s a paradox, but it’s exactly the kind of wild idea that keeps the world coherent, right? Let’s try it out—just make sure you’re not eating the whole structure for dinner.

Sounds like a science experiment more than a shelter, but I can see the appeal. Just remember, a fire that burns on sunlight is a short‑lived trick, and if you start eating the tarp you’ll be left with a pretty dry campfire and a very dry joke. Keep the fire pit in the ground, use a reflector for the heat, and don’t forget to bring a spare firestarter for the night.

Right, it’s more of a campfire experiment than a permanent refuge, but that’s the fun part—playing with the rules of fire and light while you’re on the road. Just remember to keep the real fire underground, slap a reflector on the tarp, and never—really never—take the roof for a snack. A spare firestarter is a must, and maybe bring a laugh that lasts longer than the blaze.
