the iron maiden telephone? Seriously, is it a strange meat tenderizer?

 

[YT2095]

is it for climbing ice walls or trees?

looks like it work just great for that even if it isn`t.

It looks like it's used for forcing two items apart. Correct??????

i'd guess that i's used to carry, seperate, or move something, like ice or wood.

is it used with another one, or more?

 

[DrThunder88]

Nobody has it yet. And yes, the filename is a total red herring.

It is used for moving something, but I've usually only seen them in use one at a time.

 

[Barbara L]

To move fish (like on the boat, when moving it down a conveyor belt)?

To move meat?

Sheesh, this one is driving my daughter's boyfriend and me nuts!

Maybe that thingamabob in the back is the release?

 

[pacanis]

Something has been telling me that's it is used to help move around hides, but I don't think the holes it would leave would be appreciated.

 

[Andy M.]

Maybe bundles of wool?

 

[pacanis]

Something else I was thinking of, but haven't found;
Does if provide a "step" for a roofer? Or perhaps a place to rest a board?
Seems like you could slam and set those spikes into a piece of wood and use the "thingamabob" (I think it looks like a doohickey) as a step or to rest a small plank on....

 

[iswhaticrave]

First thing I thought of was for grabbing/moving big hunks of meat also.

 

[plumies]

Does it move ice?

 

[jeninga75]

Does it move anything at all?

 

[pacanis]

Does it move anything at all?

I'll bet it does if you get "touched" by it......

 

[Barbara L]

My daughter said you use it to move kids to bed when they keep getting up for another glass of water!

[DrThunder88]

You guys are coming up with some good alternate uses, but unfortunately no one has it. This calls for a hint!

Despite its medieval appearance, you may find this device in some very high-tech locations.

 

[Barbara L]

To move bundles of fiber optics cables?
