Deck Chairs are the most simple of all folding seating
apparatus, but they have only one means of adjustment, that
being the relative angle against the level surface.
Deck Chair Ratchet, permits the user to relax or increase the
tension of the actual seating canvas by winding it unto a
roller
placed at the head of the chair.
This is a very simple replacement of the usual fixed batten
unto which the canvas is normally stapled in a fixed position.

Insufficiently HalfBaked - actually, an excellent idea ... |
|

[ ] I think there's probably an optimum tension; beyond that one way you slide off, the other and they have to bury you in it. |
|
| |
Now, if [xen] had included some pointless, unreliable and ludicrously overcomplicated clockwork mechanism for dynamically adjusting the tension, then it would have been HalfBaked .... but as it is, well .... |

[lurch], [Tindale] With a pair of these, you could play catch,
tossing a person back and forth between them.

Congratulations, [xen], for inspiring a range of weaponized beach furniture. |
|
| |
..and also to [8th] for the verb "to weaponize" |
|

oh and here I thought one could turn a deck chair into a sailboat....+ |

Shame on you [8th_of_7]. You've taught dear innocent
[hippo] a bad word. |

This would be the same "dear innocent [hippo]" that came up with ideas like "Chickens with lasers", "Cinema with real gunfire" and "Petting slaughterhouse" ? |
