DON'T DISMISS THE EMESIS BAG (AS AN IPOD STAND)

INTRO:

Just because you don't get airsick, do not dismiss the free emesis (vomit) bag provided by the air lines. I recently found myself on some long flights without my iPod Touch stand to make movie viewing handsfree. What to do? Here are 2 solutions I created.

After completing the first flight I left the bag on that flight for its intended use if necessary. The second flight, different air line, I had to modify my technique for a slightly different type of bag which had a wired closure.

The finished stand supported my iPod Touch quite nicely.

The first bag did not have the wired closure so I simply "dog-eared" the corners of the bottom of the bag to allow for easy insertion of that end into the opened top of the bag.

A few folds to the body of the bag created the appropriate viewing angle (certainly a matter of preference) for me.

The wired bag actually is my preference since the wire wings provided additional support for the inclined iPod Touch.

You should know that the red cover is a silicone cover which is not at all slippery and therefore allowed the iPod Touch to remain in position at the inclined angle.

The wired winged emesis bag should hold a slippery case in place as demonstrated in the photo.
