Don't know why I did this. Guess I'm getting bored waiting for workable transparancies :roll:


Just thought I'd see if I could make a quick parabolic mirror to focus the sun on one spot. It's obviously not a matematically correct parabolic (Not a very tightly focused beam), but at least in theory it works.

Now we can set up a whole field of these things to pump more power into Maxwell! :lol:

cool.... another nice idea. How about getting the focus point on a white
wall or so?

I did a bunch of these working on making a "spotlight"... I can generate parabolic objects with a defined focal point if you want one... just give the dimensions...
