Non-orientable 1-dimensional (non-hausdorff) manifold Is there any nice example of a 1-dimensional non-hausdorff manifold that is not oriented? I have tried the line with two origins, but maybe something more exotic is needed? 
 A: Here is a more technical construction:
Let $X = (0, 2]$ with a basis consisting of open intervals in $(0, 2)$ as well as subsets of the form $(1 - \epsilon, 1) \cup (2 - \epsilon, 2]$ for $\epsilon > 0$.
This space is clearly locally Euclidean for $x \in X - \{2\}$. For $2$, use the following homeomorphism from $V = (1 - \epsilon, 1) \cup (2 - \epsilon, 2]$ onto the open interval $(1 - \epsilon, 1 + \epsilon)$ in $\Bbb R$:
$$
f(x) = \begin{cases}
x &: x \in (1 - \epsilon, 1) \\
3 - x &: x \in (2 - \epsilon, 2]
\end{cases}
$$
The points $1$ and $2$ have no disjoint neighborhoods, so $X$ is not Hausdorff. $X$ is second countable, since it has a basis consisting of open sets with rational end points.
Finally, $X$ is non-orientable. One possible generator for $H_1(V, V - \{2\})$ is the following singular $1$-simplex:
$$
\tau(t) = \begin{cases}
1 - \dfrac{\epsilon}{2} + t\epsilon &: t \in \left[0, \dfrac{1}{2}\right) \\
2 - \left(t - \dfrac{1}{2}\right)\epsilon &: t \in \left[\dfrac{1}{2}, 1\right]
\end{cases}
$$
No matter what orientation you choose for $(0, 2)$, $\tau$ cannot be compatible with it. Verify this! This is also true for the other generator of $H_1(V, V - \{2\})$.
A: How about the quotient of the real line by the relation $x\sim y$ iff $x=-y$ and $|x|>1$?  It looks sort of like this:

(The two black dots are the equivalence classes of $+1$ and $-1$.)
