Can anybody Identify this?
« on: January 16, 2016, 11:26:54 am »
Hi all.
Found this by our boating lake, near where boats are launched and tool boxes, boat stands etc. sit. I am just curious as to it's purpose. It is made of Ali. The 3 black bands are "o" rings, and the black end is a very soft rubber.


Cheers, Terry.

Its probably for touch screen devices. I had one with my phone, all I now have now is the little tapered rubber bit stuck in the end of the phone!

I would say that it is a Priest which is a tool used to kill fish.

LOL you are right  %% I simply didn't read the mm and presumed that it was 6.2inch and that fit the priest and yes it's a Touch Pen device.

BTW my new glasses will arrive next week  ;)
