And the entire neighbourhood. Men with wooden sheds will run in fear!

Lining the fence with small mirrors at the desired height and then bLasting an industrial laser round the yard would cut the grass pretty quick.

Unfortunately it would preclude the possibility of leaving anything ON the lawn...

Wow, looks like fun!

What we need is to put a little electric actuator on each mirror, and some electronics so that all the mirrors track the sun automatically and aim them at the same spot. I think they have devices like that, called heliostats, for directing sunlight into light pipes for lighting buildings. But that will make it more expensive.

OK How did you get them all to "Look" at the same point? I know you did not stand in front to adjust them!

As long as you don't stand in the focal point it shouldn't be dangerous to stand infront of them, i wouldn't recommend staring into them and moving until you locate the focal point though, better not look at them at all from that direction, but standing infront of them should be ok.

I have a bird house and an annoying Blue Jay that would look good in that focal point! Squaaaawk!

Can you Bar-B-Q with this? You could put propane out of business.

Sorry Hank Hill.
