I ordered one of these:
Amazon.com: Blomus Stainless-Steel Door Stop: Kitchen & Dining
but not to use as a doorstop. I use it to wrap a headphone cord around (one
half turn) so the cord is pulled out sideways from the headphones, instead
of dangling onto my shoulder. It works perfectly. If I need to lean over to
my right, I take the cord from around the stop, and if I want to tug harder
on the cord I just slide the stop. The stop never moves on its own because
it's so heavy, and has anti-skid on the bottom. And the cord never slides up
off the stop because of the overhang.
A picture would help, but let me try to describe the setup. I plug the
headphone cord into a headphone amp that's to the left of my computer
screens. The stop is to the left of the headphone amp. The cord is routed to
the left, around the stop, and then to the left side of my headphones. The
same stop would work in any other configuration.
It's a perfect solution to
a common problem.
