Thanks Daox. Lint-I had planned to put a stoppered hole in the bottom of barrel so that I could just roll it outside, take the lid off, and hose it out, but there was just not that much lint.

The biggest difficulty in making this was getting the machine oil out of the barrel (including the smell). I used a match and news paper out in a field. Be careful.

Improvements....#1 I don't think the 2-liter bottles hold too much heat. I would recommend trying aluminum cans of Kroger diet tea or something uncarbonated. (unopened) #2 I plan to pull in air from the outside to heat so as to dampen the amount of cold air leaking into the house when the dryer is blowing air out.
