Hi,
Not trying to be funny but this sounds just like my cigar cutter.

keep down the grime. Lee

Well, I hope that's what it is, I just gave it away to someone who said that
they knew a cigar smoker. If not, then his friends will look at him funny.
Thanks to those who answered this.
I really had no clue, but I would have found some use for it.

I believe he's right. It definitely sounds like it's a cigar cutter.
Better cigars are sold without a hole in the end that you put into your
mouth, so you use that device to clip off a small amount from the end.

Unfortunately, while you can buy just the rubber flapper part, usually the
damage is on the seat which is the harder plastic or nylon. The seat etches
from corrosion and then the flapper valve can't seal completely.
Trouble is, you can replace the flapper from the top without a lot of problem

Just that I had a similar problem with one of the toilets here a couple of
weeks ago. I couldn't really see anything wrong with the flapper but since I
had to change out the valve assembly anyway and the flapper was part of that
kit I changed the flapper too and the trickle quit. The original f

Dale, I de-slimed the thing as best I could, but we have hard water, and the

Thanks for this Bob, there's not a lot os f slack in it now, but I can probably
tighten it up some. I wound up swapping flappers, and the toilet I was
originally concerned with is still running, though infrequently,, so it's back
to the hardware store once again.

Someone gave me a clip it. It's some kind of cutter, I figure for cutting
hoses?
Has three holes, your fingers go in the two outer holes, and you pull out on
one side and it slides a raizer out of the middle hole. Then you put whatever
you want to cut in the middle hole, push the blade back in

Be VERY CAREFUL when re-attaching the tank to the bowl. In fact, the tank may
exhibit a bit of "wobble" but if the new seal between tank and bowl is
sufficiently snug and properly placed the tank does not need to be concretely
tightened to the bowl -- trying to do so jeopardizes cracking the po
