mowing a Lawn like it's the year 3000

[@rudde7251]

One of the most underappreciated features of a regular lawnmower is that the spinning blades isn't just a big knife spinning around. It is also a propeller sucking the grass up into it, exactly to combat the problem with the lawnmower chassis pushing the grass down under the spinning blades.

[@WastedDad]

So if he adds a suction device at the top, he might get a better cut?

[@brendandor]

@@WastedDad Yup.

[@TimnParks]

@@WastedDad I thought he was making the top bigger to add some suction to the top. Big ol' Box fan for something to shoot that grass confetti after it's been freed from it's earthly ties.

I think the stationary lawnmower idea has merit. What you need to do is set up a grid across the perimeter of your entire lawn. That way you can just turn it on and let it run instead of moving around a small grid for hours. Bonus points because you can use it to maim trespassers.

I think Allen should try making an autonomous scythe machine. A Scythe Roomba, if you will. I bet it could be more effective than a mower.

[@Omie334]

Lawn mowers have 2 specific elements to it. 1st is that it cuts the grass but the other part is the blades spinning create a vacuum effect to pull the grass straight. Try adding a leaf blower to suck the air upwards. it might also catch the grass on fire lol

[@chloekaftan]

unless the grass is really dry theres almost no chance of it catching fire from a laser, so just mow your loan with it after the drought is over.

[@paradiselost9946]

when removing rust, the surface is dry. the materials are good at absorbing energy and heating up. water has to absorb latent heat, and it takes a LOT of energy to take it from liquid to gas... and until its removed, you are stuck at 100C. and its only being heated by the absorption of the "solid" matter around it, conducting heat to it. the laser cant heat the water itself, directly.

Are they actually engineers though?

This video did the opposite. There's a reason why we still use physical blades to cut a lot of things. They are the fastest more effective way to cut than laser. Granted, we do use lasers and plasma gas to cut metal but often seeing the process in person is much slower than using a mower.

I'm pretty sure the reason it wasn't cutting is the high moisture content of the grass being very effective at dissipating the heat from the laser, it would probably work better on a drier medium.

That would cause fires though, unless cut and then moistened. I would be a fan of that, until the sprinkler is out without warning.

not just dissipating, but absorbing... and it takes far more energy to evaporate that water, turn it to a gas, than it does to merely heat it. and until it IS dry, you arent going to exceed 100C...

[@xenibyte5898]

This is what I was thinking. Those scanners at supermarket checkouts use a single laser and a concave mirror spinning on a motor. If you had 4 of those 30w lasers focusing into a spinning mirror or a prism that could spread it out a bit then it would be much more effective. Even having the lasers created something like a bridge across the front of mower instead of the centre.

[@WJCTechyman]

@@xenibyte5898 It would still be slow, look at laser cutters. The same goes for a plasma cutter as well. It's very slow. Also what you reference here has been obsolete in xerographic printers for a long time. They now use an array of individual focused LEDs.

[@paradiselost9946]

insertion and reflection losses. 100W laser, 99% reflective mirror... the mirror is absorbing 1W. any dirt ... 10W... the lenses... absorbing power... every surface that beam has to bounce off of, or transmit through, is absorbing a certain portion of the energy, and if they arent made to deal with the energy, to radiate it away somehow, they quickly fail. and the power falls rapidly, compounding with the number of surfaces in the path... a single lens will outperform a triple lens but the single lens will have a harder time focussing... its all a trade-off, a set of compromises....

[@44R0Ndin]

Spin the mirror instead?

[@44R0Ndin]

@@paradiselost9946 Front surface mirrors using Gold as the reflective material are probably not as hard to make as you think. Just get a flat and polished piece of aluminum for one electrode of an electroplating cell, some shredded gold foil as the other electrode, get the polarity right, and pick the right electrode that facilitates motion of gold ions from the foil electrode to the polished aluminum electrode and that should gold plate the polished aluminum piece. Gold doesn't oxidize readily in clear air, and when Aluminum oxidizes, it creates a strongly adhered layer of Sapphire, so you can even skip the gold part if you can make your laser beam's wavelength bounce off a layer of Sapphire. And with the right grit, and the right lapping plate, you can polish sapphire to an incredibly reflective surface. Or you know, this kind of thing might be cheaply available online off like AliBaba or Ebay or Amazon, I haven't searched for it. But if you do this, you can probably cut that 1% loss on the clean mirror down to like 0.01%.

That said, thankfully for you Californians a Lowe's electric lawn mower (I believe the brand is called kobalt) is somewhere in the 300.00 range. If you add a couple of extra batteries, that puts it closer to the $500 range but, I recommend it if you're going to go electric because then you just swap out the batteries when your lawn mower quits halfway through the job. So far that's worked very well for me. By the way, it wasn't my intention to go electric, I just did it because I wanted the batteries for an extended chainsaw.

Grass is really hard to burn. I have a giant pile of grass and if you throw some on red hot coals it will barely burn, and put out the fire.

California unfortunately banned all new small engines rated 25 horsepower or less. This includes two stroke and 4 stroke engines.

People can still buy gas powered equipment if it's old stock or technically if the engine was made 2023 or older. But most stores are too scared to restock new old stuff. Or if you know where to look and buy you still can get new stuff. Also if you've owned gas powered equipment prior to the ban you are safe to still own and operate it. It's just the new stuff.

One of the big issues is that each laser is spending the vast majority of its time doing nothing and not burning anything. My opinion, mirrors are your best friend here. Even one laser at full mirror efficiency would be extremely effective. But you could use several lasers at very very slightly different elevations, all utilizing the same round mirror array, which would cut grass ridiculously efficiently and will likely come close to a real mower. Would love to see a version 2

Alright, here’s an idea i had a while ago but I don’t exactly have the ability to make it, i call it the “mega pizza cutter”. So first you get a sawblade and attach it to a handle like a pizza cutter, but this could only be really dangerous if it was spinning, so because motors need batteries you attach a tiny gear to the blade. And a big gear to a ball bearing , then put the ball bearing on the handle plus a handle for cranking the big gear which cranks the little gear really fast which cranks the blade really fast, and then chain it to one of those armored padded gloves and put the glove on. Sorry if that was too much to read
