Cool new Mystery tools

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by safariknut, Oct 10, 2006.

  1. Here's a couple of pics of some tools I got off the 'Bay.Made out of thin tubing.Two are marked,"Made in USA" and another is marked,"Holbein Japan Made". I know what they are;do you?

    One pic is of them in the stored position and the other is in the work position.There is another item needed to make them functional and it can be made out of many different substances.Gl***,steel,aluminum,and paper are some of them.

    A hint:Devices like this have been used as far back as 10 THOUSAND years and they are still being used today.

    Haha -- that's very funny. That thread is a HAMB comic cl***ic.



    I'd like to see these blowguns in operation. I bet the result is much better than one would initially guess.

  17. We have some sharp people out there!They are,of course ,mouth operated air brushes.They came in a box with a DeVilbiss atomizer that had also been used to touch up photographs.They go along very well with these that I picked up last year.
