What a pain

[anachronism]

You guys would not believe what a pain these were to get hold of. There's an odd one out here if you look closely.

Ideas?

I know you probably could not have waited a couple months but I'd have given them to you for free. Occasionally we see stock like that come in but 'tis a crap shoot...

 

[anachronism]

I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, so hit me up when you get them in next time 8) 8)

Thanks!

OK, now what are they? :?

dude...I think I've asked you if you had some when I needed it.

Maybe it's a misunderstanding and I don't know what i'm looking at. These are the thingamajiggers you put in the who ha to cause a watchamacallit right?

In all seriousness, the only piece you i knew you had was the piece in the assay lab betwix chemical cabinet and wall. although that one is a bit more exotic i imagine.

Lou can attest that I am not only able to look that gift horse in the mouth, I point out it's crooked teeth.

Control rods out of a nuclear reactor?

Chimes from a fancy door bell?

Iridium left and right, the middle one is some things else.
I see this all the time in my scrap.

I knocked them together and it's not a particularly good ring. :lol:

Henrik I wish I saw these in my scrap all the time. I've had the devil's own job getting these made for me without losing my shirt. 8) 8)

Edit For scale they are 22mm diameter and 150mm long . Or roughly 1 inch diameter and 6 inches long for you American folks.

 

[Shark]

How big are they?

 

[anachronism]

1 inch diameter and 6 inches long.

The next ones are a foot long.

 

[archeonist]

But what are they?? What am I looking at?

 

[Lou]

By scrap, I mean ones without the plating...

Did that supplier I sent you end up being able to help you, Jon?

Nah they wouldn't even return my call mate.

Hmm Interesting.
Well I'm pretty sure it is not for cementing values, and it is way to big for most anything I could use a bolt/cylinder for.
I'm also pretty sure it's not stainless steel, because that is easy to get hold of.
The color don't seem right for Titanium, and we do not know if its plated, tube/pipe or massive.
So there is a lot we do not know.
Anyhow I'm still curious
Anything you want to disclose in this guessing game?

What is a poem meant to be sung?

OK

The material is solid bar.
The centre one is not plated whereas the outer two are. This was included merely for colour comparison.
The base material IS Titanium.

 

[Yggdrasil]

Oops, my bad.
I have never seen Ti in that color. Well, unanodised that is

My guess then is: that it is platinised Titanium for a center electrode.
Namely for the carbon cell discussed in the past????
A long shot I know :lol:
