hi all

I am very keen to find out what this piece of kit is i have come across. I have been told it is a Ram of some sort but have no idea what its proper name is or what is used for. Any Ideas?

Cheers

yes A few minutes, a shed, a pounding power-ballad soundtrack and a montage should turn it into a motorbike capable of propelling you faster than a helicopter gunship whilst somehow avoiding tracer fire at the same time.

.... I was thinking that within the work of a moment it could be transformed into a cabbage firing rocket launcher that miraculously beats the oppositions machine guns without one of our heroes getting shot.




Or something.

Just looks like a hydraulic piston, possibly a spare from a piece of machinery?

It's an old blister ram from a type 42 frigate, haven't seen one of those for a long time. There is also a cicular piece of metal missing with slits of rubber embedded in it.

Some sort of compression tool for a large piece of artillery, at an uninformed guess.
