Heath Robinson would be suing for breach of patent, unless of course he invented it.

Who in their right mind would want that thing?
The Early Bird May Get The Worm, But It's The Second Mouse That Gets The Cheese !!
I think someone was trying steal the HW35's crown as ugliest thing in the world ever!
They got damn close too!
Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room
Apparently an under-lever. .
It was probably made by the same craftsman that made this: http://imgur.com/a/Rx7eB
lf you are a steam-punk you will love it.
Damn that thing's ugly,it makes a Relum Tornado look good.
£12?,"you were robbed".
scrap value - you'll get that £12 back easy .
Was there not something similar being sold last summer on Gstar ?
At £60 a ton for mixed metal I doubt it .

Thanks - Geoff.
Running it down and pouring scorn is easy. The effort and passion on display here is real and admirable.
The best things are those you make yourself.or at least struggle for. Anyone with money can walk into a shop and buy something from the shelf, but supposing you are short of cash, or say your parents won't let you have an airgun. What do you do?
Like that pistol the other week, guns like these are symbols of a rather deep sentiment and drive and could tell a fascinating story.
Bring to mind the Blowpipes, elastic Flingers, catapults and all sorts of childhood weaponary that you may have made way back-along. Where the seeds of this amazing interest that we share were sown and realise how much is owed to such contraptions.
It's so fugly that I kinda like it...
It kinda looks like it may be a tap loading pump up? ...but what was mullered to make it because some of the bits do look sort of gun-ish?...is that handbrake lever off some old car used to pump the bottom chamber and a tap/valve on the side is used to transfer and hold pressurised air in the top chamber?...who knows?
blah blah
Looks as if it could be part of an art undergraduate's finals work .
