Title: Another can you Guess what it is..!!!
Post by: HS93 on March 29, 2009, 04:23:42 PM
Ok this is something I made today , I should of got some pictures as I was making it but it is all basic stuff (advanced to me). it was something I have needed for some time but never got around to make.
It is a simple device that will prob use most days.

hear are a couple of pictures, there are prob not many people who would need one.

Since it's sittong on a counter top with a sink in the background I would have to go with a "pick-it-up" device for either the sink drain or valves that control the hot/cold water?

sorry chaps going colder , only used the worktop as it was clean and it has no distractions in what it is , come on chaps must try harder, Darren was partley right, the end has a pin inside that expands the end , it has a rubber "O" ring to close it again , (Hint I am not very mobile)..

also most of us handle the items it was made for each day, even the Luddites..  ( Capt Ludds men)

Is it a screw gripperer, positioner and tightenupperer? For those difficult little places we need to get to at times.

Remember Steve, you are talking to the working classes here, they don't even know what a Martini is, never mind an olive.

If it isn't brown and frothy, and comes in a pint glass, and no we aren't talking about chocolate milk shakes, it isn't worth drinking.

I thought Martini was a working class drink, perhaps as a young man I was frequenting better residents that I realised then  :lol:

I noticed the rubber o-ring and expanding bit Pete, gis a clue, what's the dia?
Title: Re: Another can you Guess what it is..!!!
Post by: sbwhart on March 30, 2009, 03:11:29 AM
Thats a collet on the end:- so pressing the plunger will close the collet: reducing the dia of the o ring: you put it into something release the plunger it grips the something so you can pick it up  :headbang:

so whats the something then ????

The dog/cat, polo mints, TV mote, Spoon,

Sorry stumped on this one  :bang:

Ok the end is 15 mm and it expands when pressed, I think you are all going to be very disapointed when you find out all its for, but to me it's very handy and allows me to do another job. so ill appoligise for the disapointment befor you find out, answer at 12 pm uk time.
