Ahhh! Perfect!
I love backrubs. They are wonderful. Unfortunately, sometimes when you want one, there is noone around to give you one, except maybe your landlady, and you dont want to ask her for one.
Instead, get the A Ghost of a Touch Backrub Machine!
Slip your hands into the gloves, sit down
on the bench, and reach out.
The arms of the Ghost mimic your movements perfectly, with hands made of material that feels like a real hand. Tactile feedback in the gloves as well as your nerves in your back ensure maximum control.
So sit back and give yourself a nice back-massage!

Use this as a mapping template to direct the Ghost towards the neediest areas on your back. [jurist, Sep 22 2005]

there's an illustration, but not the same idea as DF's [dentworth, Sep 22 2005]

If someone could do an illustration, please? |
|
| |
OH, and can anyone find a better category? |
|
| |
Better category for you: health: massage |
|
| |
Ahh thanks! Why didnt I think of that? |
|
| |
Set it up with memory capability, so you can run through once and save it, then play it back and relax completely during the massage. I'd buy one. |

I love back //Graffa's// too! Hmmm... |

Sounds a bit like it could be implemented by one of those multi-storey window cleaning kits... The ones that have very powerful magnets on them (you clean the inside, it cleans the outside) - only the 'inside' would be a mouse-shaped thing with a roller or something that you roll about your chest, and 'outside' would be a big bristly brush or roller-thing on your back! [Probably not recommended to any pace-maker users out there] |
|
| |
will it give neck rubs? ;) |
|
| |
UB in your case, your son at 35 will probably still be good for your vertebrae... |
|
| |
I take this as a proof that you are cured DF!
[+] for the brilliant idea |
|
| |
I could see this being use by people to auto-asphyxiate themselves... or to self-gratify themselves :) |
|
| |
So it's really many inventions in one... I would use this to play keyboard from another room... [+] |

I picture this as an 1800’s creation, filling an entire room with levers, cables and pulleys surrounding a padded table. A satisfied customer with eyes closed and a serene grin is pictured using it in the b&w single page flier. |
|
| |
Yes, ixnaum! I am cured! Hooray! |
|
| |
What if the ghost hates your guts, and ends up breaking what he should be soothing.... |
|
| |
Just remember, you control the machine, tactile feedback prevents too much force. |

Though being haunted by a BENEVOLENT backrub machine might be nice... |

Inspired, and yes, like one of those drawing thingys that copies things, only smaller, or the same, or bigger - No, not a spirograph, the levery thing! |
|
| |
are you thinking of a pantograph? |
|
| |
Yes, I've just been looking it up, and yep that's precisely what I was thinking of. |
