Inventor's hands-free newspaper stand plan

A Colwyn Bay man's invention to help people read newspapers hands-free is being put into production.

Gareth Jones, 46, invented the 'Binski' newspaper stand after he saw his father struggling to read a daily newspaper whilst eating his breakfast.



The stand comes in two sizes, tabloid and broadsheet, and is made out of stainless steel.



Mr Jones said he wanted to take the stand into production because it was "so simple to make".

"I like to solve problems," he said.

" "I like to solve problems," he said."

...I like to save money and the use of worthless gadgetry- ...Perhaps just use something that already exists since the first newspapers got sold- A bigger table.....?

Well actually .. I have been looking for something like this for a  LONG time to place in our Reception area. Is there anything more untidy than newspapers strewn around on tables ??
I love it !!
Brilliant idea - thanks a lot Gareth!
