Well we do know the number is less than 12 and more than 10. So it should not be that hard. Speak for yourself... ;) Okay so how about a laser scredriver? edit: how about I try that again? A laser screwdriver. It says Amy used it in that wiki link so... |

Oh good grief You're not saying all I needed to do was to work out eleven are you? And then put it together with screwdriver before sandwiching in sonic? ...... ......... Do you lot have any idea how long I've been puzzling over this? *flounce nose in air* Is it the 11th Doctor's Sonic Screwdrivre Admiral? edit:That there *point at that there* is not my fault. My keyboard has gone rogue or something. Screwdriver? :) |

Oh I will go with this. I decided not to be to nit picky. It actually is a real screwdriver in the shape of the Eleventh Doctors Sonic screwdriver. It has a interchangible Philips and flat head bit. |

Annie will come up with something good, like a cake and pie launcher ... :) |

It has a interchangible Philips and flat head bit. *scowl* I almost said that the day before! But I thought everyone would snort ;) I will get looking for a pie launcher pic for posting, but it will most likely be after the outrage, people :) |

If this one has been demystified before, then I do have a backup which I thought of posting first but haven't as you can see below... here above ----^ Yes it is a bit of a rubbish picture, so what? *negligent blink* It's the one I want. Accept it. ;) |

A pie crust trimer |

A pie crust trimer What you've done there, Carlos, is invent an entirely different use for this tool that I can thoroughly endorse :) whilst at the same time saying you're completely wrong... yes :) so no. |

I don't think that's a pie launcher, but I get the feeling we are being pelted. |

Something with the fur trade? |

During High School I made and sold rabbit pelt purses. Might it be something I used? |

I get the feeling we are being pelted *KIM JONG- UN B L I N K* I made and sold rabbit pelt pursesIf that's a bearly disguised threat parading as conversation, Carlos - it really is quite a good one. Otherwise... *sniff like a supreme leader* Yes, us girlies did used to find retrieving our keys and whatnot quite difficult whilst they were still hopping around, and they were and are, I believe, quite tasty to eat too I'm told, but... what with that lot up there ---^ and this bit not up there ----^. Something with the fur trade? ...I'm getting the distinct impression that this is going to be a short-lived tool... However... If I may, I would like to refer you to statements I've previously made about attempts to regime change me away from my nuclear buttons and my comfy palaces ... yes... ;) I thought so... |

All right, I have something so I will ask the question. Is it a BONIS Never Stop Model B Fur Skin Leather Industrial Sewing Machine? |

All right, I have something so I will ask the question. Not so much as you might have liked, Carlos, no. I can see why you might have thought that though :) Would you like to have a look into it a bit further...? *open top* ...because I may have slightly inadvertently... *stare straight ahead at ... nothinginparticular* ...lopped something off either side a bit. from here... ------------------------------------------------------------------^ no ... erm... from here ---^ up there ---^ as you can see... :) was that wrong of me...? |

A Bris cutter by any chance?? Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

It's funny you should mention that Rob, because I came across something whilst looking for the tool that Carlos has in every sense of the word identified but ... due to a sudden attack of pickiness brought on by his specificity *fall over in astonishment that specificity didn't get rudely red-lined* I said no to. It looked very much like it had something to do with the area you and Admiral are currently looking at, except a larger chopped-off area than erm... what is generally accepted by perhaps as many as half the planet's population ;) ... y-e-e-s ... You will be relieved to hear it wasn't though. It was about finger cutting. It can be quite difficult getting a proper idea of size in photographs can't it? Anyway - it's a custom of the Dani tribe apparently - that predominantly grieving women get digits lopped off as a measure of their grief at the loss of the men in their lives. Some might say it's a small price to pay... ;) I am actually very happy for Carlos to take the win if he would like it. It's only the make of the tool that made me dig my heels in last night. I shall hold off PMing him for the moment to see what transpires... |
