Game: Guess the mystery object !

[GoolGaul]

looks like you screw it into the ground, with that auger down at the bottom.

Mebbe something to chase away Moles, or that system they use to adjust cracked or sinking foundations of houses...

Flaminpyro wins ..... it's an "electric eye" flame detector for gas/oil burners ..... there are two electrodes in a glass gas chamber (like a gas discharge lamp) that become "triggered" (ionized) only from the wavelenghts included between 190 and 270nm, causing a current flow through it, but is insensitive to any other light, so it detect the UV part in this range that is normally emitted from the flame of oil and gas burners, but not the light from, as example, external lights, daylight, incandescent firebricks or burner parts, and so on.


@FP: your item is a complete item itself ? (i'm asking cause the bottom looks as if it had to be hooked somewhere, with that circle of steps) .....

About the images, i think ped means to attach them directly in the forum (going "advanced" in posting, then using "manage attachments" and loading them as attachments for the post, instead to use the quick reply form)

@Flaminpyro: it's an pineapple slicer/cutter

 

[BShanahan14rulz]

It gently but easily slices your moles into spiral-cut mole fries.

 

[ped]

Come on FP we need some clues

 

[Flaminpyro]

Sorry I got busy and forgot

DEMONEX is right it's a pineapple slicer, give the man a cigar

@HIMNL9 where do you click on advanced when your posting I looked but couldn't find it ?
I just found it you have to scroll down I have never done that befor anyway I tryed but it
said my file was to large so I will have to figure how to down size it my self maby I can
use tinypic and upload it from the url ?
Just tryed that and it says can't upload invalid file.

 

[ped]

Ok DEMON your go!

And can I remind everyone, try to post something a good many of us may of seen at some point, making it insanely hard or obscure just drags it out and spawns "while were waiting on clues, i'll post this" posts and the whole thing gets complicated


Cheers guys

It is known, but if you do not know is not easy to guess what it is.:eg:

 

[anselm]

Damn it, I've seen that one before!
Isn't it a bottle opener?

 

[HIMNL9]

@ FP: you need to resize the images for made them less than the maximum accepted, both in size AND resolution ..... for the resolution, is 800x600 pixels max, for the size, it change with the type of files, but there's indicated the maximum in the post window ..... for resize them, you can use any of the free programs around, like irfanview, or faststone, or any other similar ..... and always use jpeg, so they take less space.



@Demonex: futuristic lemon squeezer inspired to "the war of the worlds" tale ?

 

[anselm]

Yeah it's starck's citrus press:banghead::crackup:

 

[DEMONEX]

@ HIMNL9 : you win, one more time.
@ Anselm : It is irritating, huh. :na:

 

[ped]

So who's turn is it?

 

[anselm]

It's HIMNL9 as far as I'm concerned, but if you have to ask, why don't you just post something?
Gosh this thread is really murder on the "signal/noise" ratio of my post quality!

 

[ped]

[anselm]
