^Probably a voice disguiser for epic prank calls!

No, not for anything athletic.

other than mebbe for your motorbike, i am defeated as to what that device is for. and my electronic thingie is a "Stage One" stereo image processor. it is capable of independent control of sum versus differential signal, and has a nice center channel "fattener" [for want of a better descriptive term] which accentuates image depth in stereo recordings.

Does it straighten metal wire that comes on a spool? What would be the purpose?

Gahhh it's going to drive me bonkers! The diagram reminds me of a sewing machine (like with the bobbin threading system).

I can't figure out what the wire would interact with :-? .

^ I'm still miffed. How does a wire pully system assist with drywall construction? And why is it at an incline?

I found a video of someone using one.

I'll PM anyone the entire URL in exchange for chocolate chip cookie dough.

Ha! Game over I guess.

Here’s Columbia’s video - within the first 2 seconds you can see how it works.

And this one is worth the premium price Because it’s way better at regulating the thickness of the depth of the mud on the back of the paper tape. You want he consistency of taping mud, as well as the amount of it on the back of the tape, different for different types of joints. Being able to do that way better saves a lot of time throughout the whole process, so this machine will pay for itself in a matter of weeks/months and then last for pretty much a lifetime. Which is why I bought a new one.. they’re never for sale used unless they’re stolen or someone dies. No one buys this one unless they’re gonna keep it and use it.

Nooope!

I actually don’t own any, unless you count a few cock rings as sex toys, then perhaps I do.

I DID or myself and one of my close friends some items from AndrewChristian.com’a Black Friday Sale, though. Feel free to go guess what I bought. :lol:

Ok. I opened this up last night or this morning - I ordered it maybe 5 weeks or so ago. Package says something about quantity 2 and this being No 1 so I Think there’s still a 2nd parcel coming. I DID order two of this thing, and their May Be two of these components in this parcel as there are an even number and the one seems to be duplicated.. plus there are other components that I do not see here through the bag so maybe they’re in a 2nd parcel still on the way. Time will tell. Some of them I’ll need, others I’ll replace with better versions & modifications sourced online.

Anyways, this is what I have so far for the two of these I ordered:
