For the last couple months, I've been thinking about you either purchasing or making a manifold cooker. Since the assembled ones are out of my price range, I just had to make one. The picture should explain themselves, but feel free to ask questions. The total cost was 3 dollars and some rivets and steel angle iron.

The bread I was cooking in it

Pictures?

Sorry for the 45 second delay!

It works pretty well

I would like to have your bread recipe and time cooking too if it is possible

Also I found this Henry Ford Recipe but I never try it... Maybe next week-end.

Hobo Bread, ingeniously baked in a can, brings the vagabond tales of the resourceful American hobos to your home. The Henry Ford lives to tell the innovative and compelling stories of American life through artifacts, exhibits and even food. Whether for breakfast, sandwiches or as a dessert, this original recipe allows you to enjoy an American tradition that once turned strangers on the track into family.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups boiling water
- 2 cups raisins
- 4 teaspoons baking soda
- 4 teaspoons butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups walnuts
- 4 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
1. Pour boiling water over raisins; let cool.
2. Stir in baking soda and other ingredients.
3. Fill 3 greased and floured 28-ounce cans to half full (remove paper labels from cans before starting the baking process).
4. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes to an hour.
5. Cool and remove from cans.

That recipe looks interesting, I would give you mine, but I just made it up.
