Ok Geeks. What is this?

[Phred42]

There are 3 gas inputs all adjustable. They are marked: Gas - Air - O
It is on an articulated adjustable mount
It stands 6.5" tall and is made out of brass.
Must weight 7-8 pounds

So - is there a technical name? What is this generally used for?

[NMDemDist2]

just a guess

either a welding thingie

or a medical/surgical thingie

:evilgrin:

1. looks like an old timey bunson burner valve (sp?) from highschool science

[EOTE]

4. That would be my guess.

And the different valves allow for a combination of various gases.

9. That's my guess, too n/t

2. It looks like the bottom foot of and older dentist's chair......????

3. Triangulation of the Democratic Party - the DLCers + the Blue Dogs + moderates all feed the

Notice there is no input from a fourth source - progressives.

Maybe not.

6. Easy...

7. Gas regulator often used in glassblowing

The one I have belonged to an analytical chemist
(Chemists used to make their own labware)

8. It's a valve

Looks like a science experiment waiting for the scientist

11. It's the gas mixing chamber the repuplicans use to

blow hot air up the asses of their constituents.

15. Thanks - I thinks that's it

Mine came fromt eh basement lab of a dentist that did experiments for med schools and built equipment for them

Now it makes sense

[HopeHoops]

16. I would use it to shoot lasers at space aliens

Or robots, or freeper teabaggers, or something evil like that.

[LeftHander]

17. An E-Bay Curiosity Sprayer of course...nt

[glinda]

18. Husband guesses something perhaps for Lab glass. Tubing bending????

Gas + air under pressure gives a high temp. Gas + O and shut off air = very high temps possibly to fuse steel? Cut steel? Fuse metals. Sort of like a welding torch. Could fuse metals in a Lab for experimental purposes.????????? That is his guess and he has a background in Arts and welding.
