Every week  Hemi’s dad told him to mow the  lawns. He had to do it by the weekend otherwise he would not get his pocket money for that week. Hemi said to himself  “ I would rather be making my latest robot invention than mowing the lawns”. That was it, Hemi decided to go and to the shed and try and try and make a robot that would mow the lawns for him.

So he went to find the tools he would use he picked a blender, some steak
knives, his dad’s nose hair trimmer, a old computer, some old scissors, a laser and some old guitar strings to tie it all up. “Right” said Hemi  “lets get this thing started”. So he stayed up all night and made his first invention. But it blew up when he tried it. So he had to stay up the rest of the night making another robot. In the morning when he had to do the lawns he pushed out his mystery invention onto the lawn. When he had uncovered it he got the control out then he pressed down the word lawn mower then he presses the word go and the invention starts mowing the lawns by itself. He then went and grabbed a deck chair and some lemonade and he sat down on the deck chair and he drifted off to sleep to the sound of the lawn mower. After an hour of sleeping  he woke up to the sound of shouting and he couldn't see his robot lawn mower anywhere “oh what has my robot  lawn mower done”.

So he went of to the neighbours and saw his robot lawn mower there so he went over and saw the lady screaming “it’s cut all my grass” “did you want your grass cut” “ well I did want my grass cut”. Then Hemi pushed the button stop when it came near him. But just then Hemi got an idea what if I made some more robot lawn mower. So Hemi decided to sell robot lawn mowers and he got very rich.
