Invention Ideas

I love inventions. I've come up with a few.

One of my best invention ideas is the guitar-case chair. It's pretty much just a hard-shell acoustic guitar case with legs that fold out to turn it into a chair to sit on as you play. The case would have four fold-out legs arranged in a rectangle on the body-section of the guitar case. There would be an additional fifth fold-out leg by the head-stock of the guitar case. All these legs would be attached on the back of the guitar-case.

Over the neck part of the case, a fold up canvass seat back could come up -- kind of like a beach-chair recliner. The fifth leg by the headstock of the case would allow the case-chair to fold down into a beach-style recliner. You could also arrange the chair-back upright for a regular chair playing position.

At festivals, a guitar play could wander into a jam with guitar-case-chair in hand and then easily have a place to sit to play with friends. If traveling alone, a street musician could quickly set up a place to sit and play anywhere he would want.

One potential problem is the hinges. I have sat on guitar cases before, and the hinges often break. In order for the guitar-case-chair to work, you would have to come up with some sort of hinge that wouldn't break under the body weight of a guitar player sitting on it.

I have some other invention ideas I'll post later.
