When we had the smallholding ex ran his own building firm with quite a few employees - You wouldn't believe the number of times my yard brooms and shovels went missing and were found on the building sites !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Until I painted them pink !
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I would like to invent a greenhouse that collapsed around itself during bright winter days, and then rebuild itself at night.
And have you invented something to help you in the garden?
You mean an automated version of this?
Actually with a few rams working on a Raspberry Pi powered system that triggers with certain pre set temperatures (i.e. so it would open at for example 15'C and closes at 5'C) it wouldn't be all that terribly difficult to do.
My only concern is ensuring the structure is sound enough to cope with wind but that's only a few calculations away...

I have a pink fork and spade and still manage to hide them around the garden, I like Bobs idea but will need everlasting batteries so they never fail.
Thank you Lyn.
Tardis shed for me too
Install a solar panel webbing into the handle since they're always used outdoors that should keep the batteries topped up nicely!

You can buy those car keys thingys where you clap your hands and it beeps, could be attached to tools maybe, i will check on that.
Brilliant! Clarington, off to the Patent Office with you, not forget your friends
Dove, re pink tools; someone bought me a pink flowered screwdriver as mine were always going missing on building sites; still got the flowered one!
I would like a tiny fork lift machine to lift and carry big sacks of compost, it would have to manage two or three steps also.
That's one of the things I've got OH for!
