Donald is obviously under a lot of pressure at the moment. I can post something in the meantime if people want?

Ok folks, it is an artificial leech (ugh!)


Huh! Had no idea such a thing existed. Um... thank you Chris for... expanding my knowledge :)

Can't help thinking that contraption is a LOT more painful than being sucked on by a leech. What next... artificial tapeworms? :)

Edit: Oops forgot to congratulate John, and CC. :)

Like many tools, if misused, it can be painful. Keep your fingers away from the business end, and you should be allright. (No neckties or long sleeves either).

Some of the results might be used in construciton, but this tool would almost never be seen on a construction site.

I don't see how it would be used with, or used to make rivets.

Does it smooth metal rough?

The question does not parse correctly. The two possibilities that I can think of are:

Does it make smooth metal rough?

and:

Does it smooth rough metal?
