My four days and no one has heard the band "encircle" and got a sign?

I can assure you all of you have seen the results of this tool.

The band has a stainless reputation.

I used one of these many times in the Navy, but the last two times I won this thread, "real life" jumped up and bit me, and I an still recovering from the last episode. Sorry, guys and gals.

Might a similar tool be used in the shipping department?

Glad you asked, I bet damage control could use it on a ship.

Admiral Gloval, it appears as if they are stumped, or no one is left playing. It may be no one is playing. Time to post a sign that they are stumped.

I guess I should show a sign that I am reading this.





It is a stainless steel bander.

Far different than the one I used on towers years ago. Boy I used the hell out of them.

Swinging 500 to 700 feet trying to secure 1 1/2 inch coax to a tower was great fun. Oh what someone had to do to keep food on the table.

Gosh the spring looks like it could come from a flashlight to connect to the battery, the copper it is attached to does suggest electricity. Obviously not a flashlight, but electrical contact of some kind?

I thought that it was a egg white separator too at first glance. But no.
It is something electrical in function.

Picture bump.
