(This photo shows a "part" of a mystery object from my life. The challenge? Guess what the object is and the function of the object.

---

If you can, post in Spanish and English, and, if clues are needed I will post them "along the way" so keep your eyes "peeled". And, a new rule for my game friends - you can post "multiple times" of course but please - one guess per post! That gives everyone "present" a chance to have a "stab at it" and makes it easier for me to follow the thread and the answers. Thanks everyone :

Answer 1

The gun used for tubes of sealant etc. We call it a skeleton gun, or a mastic gun, sealant or applicator gun. No idea what Spaniards or Aussies call them.

Can someone tell me what they are called in Spain, preferably in both languages.

Bien hecho fontanero - eres muy listo :o (Exactly! Here we call it a "glue gun/grouting gun/injection trigger gun". Lo explicaré muy pronto.. - nonombre, Jul 31, 2010

Answer 3

It looks reallly familiar whatever it is. I'm thinking MAYBE a pinball launcher. Probably not though. It does seem like some sort of buffer/shock absorber. Not sure what type or what it's on.

Hola socceryo - no desgraciadamente mi OM no tiene nada que ver con las pinball máquinas - pero buen intento :o - nonombre, Jul 31, 2010

Launcher probably has a different name but it sure does look like it could have been the right idea. I say good guess. - LateToDinner, Jul 31, 2010

Launcher is the right term, and again the Spanish games have augmented my English! - LateToDinner, Jul 31, 2010
