...without a dehydrator.
Here's my test batch of cayennes that I dried on a rack on my car's dash and then on top of a toolbox. It took several days to dry out all the way (not counting the days it rained).
I like the way the cayennes turned out. They're transluscent and they look like an X-ray when you hold them up to a light. The superchilis are a bit thicker and some of them must not have been quite ripe enough because they got a little wrinkly and more brownish than red and shiny.
Here's some cayenne. I don't know whether to eat them or just look at them.
