That's pretty sick. Reminds me of those super-high-pressure water cutters for some reason, must be because it's harnessing nature for awesome or something.

Just seems dangerous. It needs a built in mister to make the beam of sun more visible. If you can't see it, it makes it VERY EASY TO BURN A HOLE IN YOUR HAND FOR SERIOUS.

Unless you realise there's an OBVIOUS HAZARD IN PUTTING YOUR HAND UNDER THE LENS.

It wouldn't be remiss to have a laser pointer shining from under the mirror.

I feel like it's got to be a machine that people stay wise about. Like a table saw... don't fuck around with table saws.

Then again it's invisible, and incredibly powerful... I think that a laser pointer would be a good idea, or perhaps a series of laser pointers indicating the exact geometry of the cone.

Pardon me for expecting common sense while people work in dangerous conditions.

Who said they had to be drunk? You have no idea who I am, do you?

What use would a laser be? Or do you mean a videogame laser that you can always see as a straight line?

PS. If we're expected to make everything safe for drunks, cars shouldn't exist.

Humanity needs to better harness solar power, just like this.

In hindsight, I see the shortcomings of the idea.

I have a better solution! Lets make it so people can't get drunk! Let's ban the sale of alcohol! Oh wait...

Just leave it as it is. If you're drunk and you get hurt by putting your hand under it and you lose your hand, you deserve to.
