Bagpipe Sofa is a very comfortable 2 person lounge seat that has been modified to include a pair of bagpipes.
The compression bags are located under the cushioned seats with the chanters and pipes hang down on each side of the arm rests.
When you want to play your Sofa Bagpipe instrument, you
simply lower yourself into a seated position, then gently repeat this motion to compress the built in windbag. Two people can carry out this as a synchronised action with one going up as the other goes down.
Now you can begin to play your instrument as a duet, reaching over the side to use the chanters.
On St. Patrick's day, special snake deterring compositions are available on request.

So basically a two man whoopee cushion that plays a tune? |
|
| |
I don't know why I bother. |
|

Presumably the structure is sprung so as to draw in ambient air
when not being positively sat on. Then there'd be a valve. I think
[nmrm] might have a Tesla valve that he's suddenly found he
doesn't need. |
|
| |
Think of the action of a footpump for a car tyre or a set of bellows. The bag is always in an inflated mode when "at rest". A simple valve ensures that the air is retained and the bag inflated when no one is sitting on it. (I generally leave this type of detail to my learned technicians, or a minion like 8th, who has scuttled off and alas is no longer of much use, except perhaps as cat litter) |
|
| |
Problem then is the sound might stop. Need 2 chambers, a bellows and a bag |

+ Gives a whole new meaning to Musical Chairs, except people would all try to avoid sitting down. |

[xenzag], I, for one, will never tire of reading and imagining
your ideas. They are the highlight of the bakery for me, and
when our two resident cynics lived here, they were adorned
with a flavor of fun, and banter. |
|
| |
Please don't ever stop being creative and graciously taking the
hits as the others undo your dreams, just shrug it off, baby,
cause I, for one, got/get it. +++++++++++ |
|
| |
Tks. You may note that 8th is not off the hook in
my annotations. He won't escape that easily. |
|

Exercise* plus music, in the comfort of your shelter-in-place living room, so [+]. |
|
| |
Add a few armchairs tuned to the couch, arranged in such a way as to be a solution to the discerning concert goer missing in-person marching bands. |

"How is it inflated?"

I guess I'll have to be the one to say it since no one else
has...'[pocmloc...] It's done with a blow job, methinks. |

Relaxing on the bagpipes. A Juxtaposition. |

I think the most difficult refinement would be to make it ONLY
deter snakes. |
|
| |
//I don't know why I bother// |
|
| |
Or perhaps an addiction to pixilated baked goods signalling of
peer approval, there's a lot of research on that sort of thing
done by games companies, often in relation to loot boxes. |

Definitely needed . A Western Brown snake was in my place
a few days ago looking for someone to kill. In a state of
panic, all I could do was watch it while standing on my
lame, non-bagpipe- playing faux leather sofa. + |
|
| |
A Western Brown, eh, [cromagnon]? Does that mean you're
another sandgroper, like myself and [AusCan]? |
|
| |
At last, a sensible idea on the halfbakery. |
|
| |
G’day [pertinax]. Yes, a West Aussie desperately searching
for a pair of bagpipes on Gum Tree at the moment…and a
sofa. |

How about an accordion loveseat with the keys in one of the
sofas arms & the buttons in the other? |
|
| |
I now know what two of my friends will be receiving for Christmas this year. |

Best I can do is a corduroy recliner with a broken tv remote
taped to one arm. |
|
| |
(This enhancement, along with the original post idea, are both
great ones, btw) |
|
| |
All worthy suggestions. Several years ago I posted
the idea for an accordion waistcoat as well. [link] |
