Calling an Illegal Alien an "Undocumented Worker" is like calling a
Crack Dealer an "Unlicensed Pharmacist"

Looks sort of like the old tire bubble balancer. But no level on the top.


Because I don't do any mechanical work of any kind, even though I've
taken mechanical engineering courses, I shouldn't know what that is.
BUT, I watched my mechanic doing the maintenence on my push lawnmower.
That object is to balance the lawn mower blade after sharpening.



I am not sure which Harry this is but the answer is right.


Yes. It is a blade balancer. I suppose it could be used for propellors also. The
part above the shadow rests on a point which protrudes from the base.

Damn, that was way too easy.
