Static Pin Board

 Paper holds itself up

Having been a recent architecture student the one thing that really irritated me was pinning up my work on a pin board. Very rarely did my plans stay on the board through my whole presentation and hippy architect types often ended up with drawing pins in their bare feet.

So what if a large surface could be given a static charge allowing one to easily and magically stick paper to the surface. Surely this is possible? And what fun it would be to stand near the thing with all your bodily hair standing on end!

       This idea would simultaneously stop the use of drawing pins AND give static cling:
Use a *huge* balloon, and rub your head on it before use.

       static wears off though doesn't it? I'd trust pins more.
