Abstract: A landscape edging block can include a shaped structure having a first and a second end. The first end can include a surface that is concave simultaneously along a horizontal plane and a vertical plane. On the contrary, the second end can include a surface that is convex simultaneously along a horizontal plane and a vertical plane. The shaped structure can include a top and sides configured to resemble decorative stone. Additionally, first end of the block can be configured to engage a second end of a second block in order to form a landscaping border.

Abstract: A gardening barrier system and associated methods is disclosed. The system may include molded panels made from an aggregate material. Each panel may have a display side with a façade resembling a wall of vertically stacked and offset pieces of wall building materials and a protrusion at an end of the panel resembling an offset piece of the wall and the wall building materials. The protrusion can include a rounded end to allow adjacent panels to be assembled at an infinitely adjustable angle relative to one another. The protrusion can be sized to minimize a gap between adjacent panels and the rounded end can be sized to approximate a size of a rounded edge of the wall building materials of the façade to minimize an appearance of a transition between adjacent panels.

Abstract: Modular landscape devices, systems, and associated methods are provided. In one aspect, for example, a modular landscape device can include a plurality of molded structures formed from an aggregate material, where each molded structure has a display surface and a buried surface. The device also includes at least one tether connecting the plurality of molded structures together to form the modular landscape device. In one aspect, each of the plurality of molded structures are not in contact with another of the plurality of molded structures.

Abstract: A ball mount for measuring tongue weight of a trailer is disclosed. The ball mount can comprise a ball portion for interfacing with a ball configured to couple with a tongue of a trailer, a hitch portion for interfacing with a hitch receiver associated with a vehicle, and a load measurement device associated with the hitch portion. The hitch portion can be configured to pivot relative to the hitch receiver about a fulcrum in response to a downward force on the ball, with the hitch receiver resisting rotation of the hitch portion about the fulcrum thereby inducing a load on the hitch portion. The load measurement device can be configured to determine a magnitude of the downward force on the ball based on the load on the hitch portion.
