A gizmo for taking samples of some kind?

[Key_Master]

Nope. :)

[lawman]

Measuring device?

[Key_Master]

Nope.

[lawman]

Device found in a Head Shop? :)

[Key_Master]

Had to google "head shop". :)

No. Nothing remotely illegal about this device.

[trillianjedi]

<OT>What's a head shop?</OT> <edit>Ah, got it....</edit>

Does it do something with a liquid?

[lawman]

Used to compress or grind something?

[Key_Master]

No Woz, the ruler is only for reference.

Trillianjedi, no. <hint>You wouldn't want to get a liquid around this device while it is in operation</hint>. By the way, congrats on the Admin promotion.

[Key_Master]

Lawman, "compress". You're getting warmer.

[lawman]

Compress a gas I presume.

[mack]

A salt grinder?

Mack

[Key_Master]

It compresses a gas or gases but it doesn't grind anything.

[lawman]

Surely its not for THIS [dailyhog.com]. ;)

[Key_Master]

You're a strange man Lawman.

And no- well, it needs oxygen. Ordinary air would do the trick.

[mack]

haha.

Yea, but in that line of business you really need to watch out for inflation.

Mack.

[lawman]

I was thinking of combustion and, well, the above link came to mind.

[trillianjedi]

Do they sell for a higher price if pre-lit?

[lawman]

I assume its made of glass and not plastic.

TJ, you made me snarf my diet orange drink. :)

[Key_Master]

It doesn't have to be made with plastic or glass. Wood would suffice.

[lawman]

Have another picture?

[trillianjedi]

diet orange

And here's me thinking you were still bulking up [img.epinions.com]

;)

Can we have another clue Key-Master?

[Liane]

Is it used in explosives?

Woz ... you crack me up! :)

[Key_Master]

Clue: It's primitive technology.

Sorry, I don't have any additional pictures.

[Liane]

Was it used in WWI or WWII?

[lawman]

Clue 1: Picture

Clue 2: It compresses something

Clue 3: Keep liquid away from it.

Clue 4: It compresses a gas

Clue 5: It nees O2.

Clue 6: It can be made of glass, wood, plastic

Clue 7: It's primitive technology.

Quite possibly the first GQ that will last until the following Saturday. :)

[Key_Master]

It's been used for hundreds of years.

[trillianjedi]

Hmmm... needs O2..... is fire involved?
