Design a utility belt with in-built drinks holsters. The
                       belt would be marketed towards the labour industries,
                       where workers regularly use both hands in quite thirsty
                       work. The belt could also be worn socially and would be
                       particularly useful in crowded bars. Drinkers would be
                       free to roam the bar, smoke cigarettes or play fruit

231machines without ever putting down their drink. A
                       gravity-based tilt mechanism could be employed to
                       avoid spillage when leaning over a pool table.
