You're warm, but you have a ways to go yet ... ;)

A hint: not everything in the picture is important ...
 

I think it's a semi-auto duster. Several revolutions of dusting when you squeeze the two handles together.


Or it's one of Phil's kinky toys.

DING! DING! DING! YOU WIN!!!

It's an antique mechanical feather / curtain duster. As you said, squeeze the handles and it spins, supposedly saving energy and motion.

Hey! I resemble that remark! :p
 
Yay! I won!

(err, what did I win?)

Ummm ...

... a good dusting? :rolleyes:


Actually, you have won the respect and admiration of all the SeniorForums members and you have proven to one and all the vast reaches of your hard-won knowledge. You have accomplished the seemingly impossible - you have cast the Light of Truth upon the Darkness of Ignorance. You can go to sleep tonight knowing that you have eased the troubled minds of many and have paved the way for the genius inventors of tomorrow.








Or something like that ... :playful:
