I guess that nobody wants to guess the Mystery Tool. I know that somebody knows what it is. But they do not want to head up the next Mystery Tool. So I will declare the panel stumped. The Mystery Tool is this. Cuff Expander for a Deep Sea Diving Suit. The site shows the modern version. I leave it up to whoever wants to start the next round of "Stump the Chumps" Mystery Tool. |
