Is it your shower drain

no mate... my shower drain looks like this



.. you gotta guess this one below.. (linked pic again to avoid page change confusion)

Carbon nano-tube growth chamber collector

  ... wow i dont even know what that is .. or that it existed ... 

... but bro... you thinking waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy too high tech.....

this is LOW tech ... very low tech ... and in a way .. completely in the spirit of a lot of the GSTWINS forum!! 

Low quality image, can't tell what the black stuff on it is 

Muffler cap?

Shake cap for spices?

an exhaust baffle of some sort?

ok.. sorry for the lo-res image... built in cybercam on laptop screen ..

the black stuff is actually surface rust .. 

Badot is getting close with his shake cap for spices idea...

but it is 'vehicular transport' related ..


... you all might be annoyed when you realise/find out .. 

it is the cap from a tire..sorry, a "Tyre" tube repair kit. had to use the proper spelling for ya janx. 
the shaker looking part is to scuff up the rubber on the tube.

  ...  Yes!!! .... #1 velly good quarity ty-ah lepair kit... Onry 2 dorrar! ... Lmao

It sucks to use... But that's it!!

I wish they would bring back the old school vulcanising patch repair kits.. Little mini vies/clamp widget... And the patches on little metal discs ... Rubber patch on one side and a kind of matchstick/phosphorus tab on the other side....

Clamp disc in place over hole.... Strike the little rough head pin thingy against the 'match bit' ... Pshshshshwshwshwssh!!! ..... Let it cool and remove clamp!! ... Awesome fun.... Bit stinky though!!

You up OldMech!!

not much time today to dig up a good one, but this should do.

Set Screw Wire Connector and a screw on Wire Nut Connector

Yep thats it! i will try to make it a little harder next time.
your up.

Here we go.

An old style LED display

No it's not an LED. It is electronic in nature. It's part of a very well know fictional item. The item pictured is a working replica of the fictional item.

Star Trek phaser?

Looks like an old style 7 segment (or 11 or 13) LED 6 character display.

Star Trek phaser?

I would love a working (functional) replica of a Star Trek Phaser.. Did you see the one that sold recently? $230k..

Thought this was LEDs too - am still pondering.. but lunchtime is time to install my handlebar risers that took 50 hours to get here from RI.

230k? isnt that around the price of a house!!

Its about half of a cheapish one here, even considering the exchange rate.. Still pretty pricy for a prop from the original series.
