Is this a trick question?
More details would be helpful

Is this a trick question? More details would be helpful I agree, more context might help |

Curiouser and curiouser...

Interest is in the eye of the beholder and whatever the imagination can inspire the mind to inquire about.
Saturday and Sunday afternoon, found me removing a 10 foot diameter aluminum mesh satellite dish and the
20 foot long heavy steel post it was mounted upon ~ which someone had offered for free on my local Craiglist.
Before it was done and moved back home, I had to return with a 16 pound sledge hammer and spend nearly an hour
pounding loose the 300# ball of concrete that held the post tightly ~ refusing to let it go easily.....
The guy wanted to know what I was going to use it for. That remains to be seen. Could be used as a cover
for a gazebo placed on the middle of my island in the middle of my pond ~ an oasis as it were from the drudgery
of day-to-day living....who really knows what it will turn into? I'm open to suggestions as well.
On the other hand, electric meters and anything having to do with the companies that supply them, intrigue me too.

that satellite dish sounds fun
could make a solar forge with it
use it to make a big solar water distiller,
use it to talk to satellites...
or get wireless internet for very very far away

I have a fiberglass 10 footer, that I cut the "nose cone" off of, but left the extended pipe (about 2-3 foot piece).
Took a power companies 3' wooden wire cable reel, turned it over to the flat side and then with anothers help,
lifted the dish up and over and with the pipe side facing down, then slid the pipe into the center hole on the reel.
It makes a great goat loafing area for them to get out of the way of those dreaded drops of water ~ commonly known as rain.

How would you get "in" to feed, water and check-up on them?
Or were you thinking more along the lines of suspending it
about a foot above the ground and installing a gigantic
HEAT BULB, and using it like a big brooder?
You'd have to cover it on the concave side will a gillion rolls of
tin foil to make it reflective so as to be effective~~!!!

That is a joke right? Place dish upside down (like a bowl upside down on the ground) Cut a hatch type door up top on the mesh (you did say it was a mesh dish) , of course only up high enough that you can still reach in to fill said waters or feed dish's, just think of all the grass they could pick at to eat and some bugs , if it is to big to move around by yourself I would assemble something so that I could drag it around to a different spot once grass is down short, I don't know use your imagination......of course once they had nice size on them you would have to let them out! |
