An umbrella where the shape is not necessarily circular, but specifically the handle does not attach at the centre.
When I walk with my umbrella I have to choose whether my backpack or one of my shoulders gets wet. Holding the thing in front of my nose for lateral symmetry gets my backpack wet, and putting it over one shoulder gets the other one wet.-- beck, Dec 28 2006 Umbrella built for 2 http://www.raindrop...ouble_umbrella.htmlJust what the doctor ordered. [Canuck, Dec 29 2006] how might such a device be constructed to maintain the fundemental benefit of the umbrella of being able to close up to a small size?-- jhomrighaus, Dec 28 2006 that shouldn't present much of a problem as long as you watch out for the odd wire spine or two.-- po, Dec 28 2006 These are Baked, designed for use by couples. Not sure I can find a link, tho.-- DrCurry, Dec 28 2006 out of curiosity [treon] how come your annos seem so different from your ideas? I don't mean that as a negative or anything, but your "voice" in annos seems different and distinct from your "voice" when you post an idea.
Just curious.-- jhomrighaus, Dec 28 2006 how astute, jhom.-- po, Dec 29 2006 random, halfbakery
