Sort of...

I've seen them that take special keys with no "head"? that make the unit much more compact. Can't find a link at the moment. [half, Oct 04 2004, last modified Oct 05 2004]

Nice illustration, there. Photomosaic-esque. |

Category formed criteria for posting "idea" - I like half's link to the keycaddy, as the design resembles a feeler guage, and lends it's elf well to pro+-totype-duction. I wonder to my elf if an old, wide, feeler-gauge wouldn't mind being used for this porpoise. Porpoise is twofold, one to stop keys from digging into leg, or rattling around in general, as the car I and a couple of other 'bakers drive is/are Saab/s, which have ignition in center floormount behind gearshift lever, rather than on side of steering column. Rattle, rattle. Most importantly, to have a compact, useful keepsake of 'bakerness. |

Potential concern: increased possibility of breaking key off in locks/ignition? |
|
| |
Make this battery operated and you could have a built in lock de-icer.(+) |
|
| |
Add a screwdriver and you can use it to boost a car if yours isn't playing the game. |
|
| |
Lovely. But one flaw: how many of these would be comfiscated at the airport? |
|
| |
Yes, and that's not a problem with current keyrings at all. |
|
| |
Funny. I've always imagined the reason we have keyrings is to keep them all in one convenient bundle, so we don't lose any. I'm continually amazed at just how wrong I can be. |
|
| |
So are we, UB. That's why we like having you around so much. |
|
| |
Just kidding of course. I made the same assumption about keyrings that you did. |
|

// I have many key-rings, with one key on them. If you manage your keys correctly, then its not a problem. However, with this there is no way to seperate the keys from the Swiss Army Knife section, and so there is no way of avoiding the "eggs in one basket" situation. // |
|
| |
That is, I would suspect, not how most people use keyrings. But to address your concerns, just do the same thing. Have one halfbakeyring for each key. |
