    1. It is a spiral - you're a genius.
    2. Do you mean of rather than or?
    3. Yes, you mean slicers though, don't you?

    Not what i meant but I'll go with it.

    I wasn't sure if it was a screw type thing or a load of circular saws which were all parallel but at varying distances apart.

    Does it bore a hole then which something screws into? The teeth look like they're for wood

    From the spacing of the blades I'd say it's something to do with cutting the grooves for the frets on a guitar neck. But I can't explain the odd sized blades at either end. :?

    Yay, over to you Graham. It is currently set up to cut the frets on a Mandolin. The end blades cut the ends of the fret board.

    Gotta ask, how does that work if the blade is set up as a spiral?

    It is not a spiral.

    Yes, there is a connection with cakes, though it's not intended to be used in food preparation.

    It's caused quite a stir recently. The Daily Mail reports 'outrage', but then they always do.

    Is looks like a syringe that acts like a piping bag but you said it wasn't for food preparation.

    Here you go, hope this works. There's a CR2032 battery next to it to give you some idea of scale.

    Some of you may have one, or even two if really unlucky.
