Answer :

answer:Send them to me! :D I think you can dry fruit in the sun by just stacking a bunch of sieves (or sieve-like devices) up and laying out a layer of fruit on each level, and figuring out a good way to vent the humidity. Sounds like it would work to me. That is, if you have sun available. Something like this. I think you could make one yourself if you have the time.
