What have these two items got in common?

The TV and the wire coat hanger.

Using the coat hanger as an aerial and having to move the thing every time you turn the tv over, And the tv had that twisty knob to turn the channel over so you wasn't sure if you was on the right channel anyway🤣

Plus an added bonus how to use one on your car with your two knob stereo.

Ashtray stands

The old man always had one next to the arm of the chair and when he finished his smoke would push down on this level/button and the top would open up.
