Scott Amron, friend of Gadget Lab and serial-innovator, has come up with yet another why-didn't-I-think-of-that invention: The rather painful sounding Split-Ring Key-Blank.
The key blank, which can be taken to your locksmith and cut to fit your locks, incorporates its own keyring: Instead of a tiny hole, you get a more-or-less standard split-ring, the kind found on most keyfobs. Yes, the idea is great, and you only need one per bunch as you can slip on all your boring old, stick-in-the-mud conventional keys onto this one.
The other thing that sets Scott's ideas apart from many others is that he actually brings them to market and sells them -- no tantalizing CGI mockups here. The split-ring keys can be bought for a very reasonable $7 a pair, and if you really like the product, you may like to buy the company. Scott is selling a 30% stake in the "Split Ring Key Blank Intellectual Property", although we'd guess that would be a little more than $7.
