Page Opener
Description
You know the problem: There you are in the bath, trying to read a book. One hand is dry, the other wet and not suitable for touching pages. The book is floppy and will not stay open, But lo, you have printed a Page Opener and stuck it on your thumb. Now you can keep the pages spread for easy reading, and still manipulate the book to turn the pages one-handed. (Book credit: The Diamond Age, Neal Stephenson)
Instructions
Scale this to suit the size of your thumb. I have short, fat fingers.

Good call! Thanks! :)
I can see this being adapted quickly into a book stand for that other breed of "in bed with breakfast and want book to just stay open on lap" lazy.

Well done vik , you truly are getting good at materialising a solution into a working design then into an object and then onto the net for global consumption.
I , for one , have had this exact bath conundrum before , good call.
