Bit of a friday question...... dream gadgets
D Beddows - 3/3/06 at 10:50 AM

Everyones done it, sat there in their garage trying to align gromet A with flange B, swearing at it hasn't worked, hitting it with the big hammer hasn't worked and you've thought 'why hasn't anyone invented.........it would be so simple, all you'd have to do would be.......' then forgotten all about it and gone out and bought a new gromet flange assembly.

So what inventions do you wish had been brought into the world???

Wallace has already invented it but Gromit left it the back of the van. http://www.wallaceandgromit.com/

A device that when down the pub, would tell you which woman will be up for it at the end of the night.
This would save so much money plying them with drink and finding you had wasted it all. Not to mention all that time talking to her. This could have been better spent talking to your mates.

( I would like to mention that i no longer take part in this kind of activity as i am happily married and have been for a number of years. Just remembering my youth really.)

P.S. Condoms should always be carried while using this device.

That would be an ecumenical matter.

Cryoman,
You don't need a gadget for that. It's the fat ugly one.
Just check them out BEFORE you start drinking and they start looking attractive.

Cant think of a new invention but i'd really like a 3d CNC milling machine.

A really big magic box.
Imagine...
You come home from work on Friday. Go out to the garage and switch on said box. Go to pub and sink several of your favourite beverages. Stagger home to see smoke and flashing lights from under garage door. Go to bed and awake to find your completed kit SVA'd, taxed and fueled.

Quite frankly, anything else just wouldn't be worth the effort.
