Not really, I'd just take my phone out, not that a phone would matter, and put it down separately, then do what I usually do if I want the contents out of my robe pockets. Turn it upside down and shake until the contents fall out. So I'd take it off, put it back on in order to enable its being ripped off if so desired to be (by parties other than myself)
And of course QV moves the blades and pointy stuff and meds. I have almost without exception got a couple of doses of a heavy-duty sedative-hypnotic/antiseizure drug (used mostly in the matter capacity) in my pocket, not that a couple of caps of it would do someone nontolerant any harm, but you can bet that within maybe 20 minutes at most you'd be spark out cold. Stuff has a real kick to it. And when I am tinkering, as in, tinkering with technological bits and pieces then I am near enough certain to have a pair of long nosed pointy tipped electrical pliers that would if misused make an excellent stabby pointy pokey implement of proddage. And fairly often a box lined with a pair of magnetic strips between which scalpel blades are held on the one side, and the spare for a trio of surgical scalpels, well two of them are the other one has a solid plastic handle so its insulated, two metal handled ones, one very small, the other regular-average size and the insulated one is a bit of a butcher's cleaver in scalpel terms, big fat handle and takes a variety of odd blades, such as a chisel-type blade, still thin like a conventional scalpel blade, but the edge is at the end only, of a long rectangular blade, and is razor sharp. They come in useful generally speaking, opening packages, think I might have used one of the three to open the tape and packaging on the two big parcels that 'santa clause', during his non-seasonal work as a mailman brought me today. and they are especially, especially handy when I've come back from a mushroom foraging hunt and want to know if what I have are things I can eat. For things like taking really really thin slices and dissecting out single fragments from gills and gill edges so I can place them using the very tips of the scalpel blades, onto microscope slides so as to do minimal damage to the cell structure, because that is typically, along with spore shape, size, orientation and type as well as reactivity with certain chemical test reagents, what I wish to examine under my 'scope in the first place, and they are the finest of fine details so they require a delicate touch, and cutting sections from the cap tissue itself to examine the shape of the hyphae, evidence of anastomoses (connections between the hyphae, they look like say, if you had two blood veins from a human side to side and little tiny veinlets joining between them connecting them, or whether the hyphae are septate (having a dividing structure between lengths of the same hypha, like an airlock almost, only singular, one every so often rather than two as a pair close together every so often)
And something I REALLY would like, is not for mycology, but pharmacological studies using cultured tissues, called a patch clamp, or cell clamp, which is where a cell is clamped by suction via micropippettes, and usually for the purpose of determining activity at various receptors, ion channels etc. by applying chemicals of interest plus buffer solution containing nutrients to enable the cell to live throughout testing and first a signal amplifier to record the tiny microscopic little electrical currents flowing as ion flux of different types flowing in and out of cellular ion channels, creating a potential differential, which is passed to an amplifier, signal recorder etc. and either recorded on a computer or I suppose one could have something to plot a trace onto paper. Either way, a way to record the data one seeks. Plus there is a very similar technique called cell clamping, which rather than using a patch of cell membrane, excised from the cell, using an entire cell and a pair of similar electrodes, formed of glass capillary tubing both connected to micromanipulators attached to the microscope stage. Would allow me a much MUCH greater lot of leeway and sophistication in the things I can develop safely, testing for many modes of toxicity without ever putting them in my own body first. That way some things that would obviously be neurotoxins from the shape of the electrical signal trace after ligand application, from modes of binding etc. can be safely abandoned before ever, ever getting close to a human. And I do not DO testing on animals, I won't stand for that kind of disgusting act. I cannot prevent it worldwide, and I do see WHY it is done, but all the same I cannot do it (in a can't stand the thought of performing such a hideous act of barbarism and cruelty) and will not do it. Nor would I tolerate it being done within the lab I exercise control and ownership of.Its simple, it won't happen. Simple as that.
