I have eight 50 to 60 gallon each rain barrels around my property.

By the way, the satellite dish is a great idea for capturing rain water some distance from a building.

I've been looking for a smaller dish to cover with aluminum foil and convert to a solar oven. You could probably weld with a 9 foot dish

Well, you could at least solder.
