Foo Time.

[bunltd]

It's that time. Here's the Gizmo [bunlimited.com]. Can you tell me the purpose of this item?

[iamlost]

Headboard in a casket?

[jecasc]

LPT Connector? Or at least some kind of connector. Could also be a printing press or something. Hard to guess the size of this thing. Could be anything from 2 cm to 2 meters.

did WebmasterWorld blink for a second?

No, it's nothing to do with caskets or headboards.

[bunltd]

Not a connector. It's actual purpose is more opposite.

[jecasc]

A disconnector! I win.

[jecasc]

Ok. So when its not connecting things its separating things. Is a magnetic field involved?

[lawman]

Royal Seal of the Most High Poobah.

[bunltd]

I win

;) hehe...

No magnets are involved in the use of this item.

What's the purpose?

[lawman]

[bedlam]

scsi terminator?

[bunltd]

Royal Seal of the Most High Poobah

No, His Most High Poohbahness changed that last week, didn't you get the memo?

[jecasc]

Candle making machine. The little pins are put into wax and it sticks. And after putting it in several times voila you have a candle.

[lawman]

Flea jail?

[bunltd]

Hi, bedlam. Sorry, it's not a scsi anything.

Tiny hint: It looks hi-tech, but it's rather low tech in usage.

[bunltd]

Doesn't do candles.

This wouldn't hold fleas, either.

[lawman]

Food strainer for old geezers?

Or in the alternative, a hand warmer.

[jecasc]

If not candles then condoms. Or other latex or plastic items. You put the little pins into latex and put air through them. Voila - grab your lady and off you go.

[lawman]

Uh oh, gotta go. Keep it as clean as possible. :)

[bedlam]

Is it sewing-related?

<sewing is clean, right lawman?>

[bunltd]

Food strainer for old geezers?

Or in the alternative, a hand warmer.

Nope.

latex

Not used in the manufacture of such.

sewing

No.

Think about food.

[jecasc]

Egg cutter

[jecasc]

Garlic press.

[bunltd]

egg cutter

Doesn't cut eggs or press garlic.

[bedlam]

Fettucine extruding die? (i.e. part of a pasta machine?)

[edited by: bedlam at 7:43 pm (utc) on July 1, 2006]

[jecasc]

Fume hood.

[bunltd]

No fettucine here.

And it's quite a bit smaller than a fume hood.

Size: think hand held.

[jecasc]

Meat grinder

[bedlam]

Meat tenderizer?

[bunltd]

jecasc, you are getting warmer...
