Nothing Earth-shattering, Magi, but it IS a substantial (okay, overbuilt) gizmo that - unlike the Indian imports - will actually lift a tie.
If it works out, I'll post a photo - and if there's enough interest, I'll put up a schematic and some shop notes. Lucky, lucky you!

Yeah, Leland, the old EZ Magic gag versions are horrible.
I have used the impromptu version using a snap bracelet.
I always wanted to make one using a small actual hinge to raise and lower the tie.
Looking forward to your invention!

I'd love to see what you've got. I used to love the pop-up tie. It was always good for a laugh.
