Well, a few others beat me to it, but I, too, would like to offer my congratulations! I hope everyone is doing well following the delivery.

LOL!! if that is the nickname it's a darn good one.

I'm thinking the nickname would be Fly Catcher because of the nets and it catches the drivers who are flying down the highway because of brake/gear problems.

You're getting closer....it is a kitchen utensil.

Neither of these stories gives the nickname, but they're still interesting.....to me anyway.

This is not the one at Buffalo, but still shows how it operates. The one at Buffalo is kinda creepy, because right after the last net is a big cliff dropping off to a stream down below. Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Demonstration Videos



here's a news story about a motor home that used ithe one at Buffalo recently.

Would it be the collinder or the strainer perhaps?

Getting closer, but this utensil is small enough to fit in a drawer.
