Technical What is This?

My father in law gave this to my son. He told us it is welding related. Has a mirror on the tip, a lens and what looks to be adjustable magnification? I immediately thought of the experts on The HAMB!

 

Only markings on the tube is “Made in Germany”

 

I Bring nothing to the table on this one......Except that it appears to be German.....

Secret agent spy scope! I think you can get them at Pinkies' Pizza!

Is that square a lens of sort's?

 

It’s a very small mirror.

 

Looks like you put it in a hole and it looks at a right angle. Like put it in a hole in the wall and be able to look up or down inside the wall.

 

That’s what I initially thought but I have no idea what the application would be

 

For inspecting the back side of wiring in aviation?

 

I'm thinking you could look behind structural steel welds in tight locations to check penetration perhaps?

 

I think its for a Dentist so he can look at the backside of your teeth before he yanks em!

 

For peaking out of der bunkers?

 

We could tell you, but then .. we'd have to ..

.. well you know.

 

I would say looks like this ..Good for seeing those cracks in you block

 

Give that man a prize

 

The H.A.M.B. rocks!

 

Anal probe

 

^^^^^ "What is this?"

 

Its a refractometer. Looks like one anyway.

 

Dr.Who pen light.

 

Based on my research (see above) I'm going with Pocket German Microscope.
The mirror must be to double down on the available light on the surface you are inspecting???

 

I was going to say something carried by Maxwell Smart or James Bond. I guess the mirror is to reflect natural light. Reading the use ^^^^^, maybe to inspect your welds out in the field, for weld boring insects? I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

Bingo!
You win......

 

Maybe a batteryacid tester.......?

My guess is A REFRACTOMETER, used (for example) to measure sugar concentration in liquids such as maple syrup.

Yes, a better way for measuring specific gravity -density- compared to say a hydrometer. Useful for battery maintenance, checking the freeze point of engine coolant, beer making. But, I wouldn't use the same one for all activities mentioned.

Pocket field microscope ... mirror is for the reflection of a light source....

I believe that it is some kind of adult novelty.

 

That's odd because I was told that's what this thing is !!!!
