What is It? Game 15

Alex

This week's collaboration with What is it? Blog brings us this strange object - can you guess what it is? For more fun guessing game (and for dimensions clue on this object), check out What is It? blog.

[No prize this week - congrats to Kent who won last week's game]

Update 3/16/07: The answer is:

Aerial spacer cable insulator, allows the running of a three phase line in a minimum amount of space. The hook on the bottom left is hung on a steel messenger cable and the conductors are placed in the large inner grooves, with the small outer grooves being used for tie wires.

Congratulations to Chris who got it right!

Jeez guys, you posted this same one a couple months ago, but it was kids playing baseball. Exact story otherwise, right down to the missing coins. If you're going to run a puzzle series, could you try not to repeat yourself so soon, and try to make them even slightly tricky?

Maybe the treed balloon was there all night or a mylar balloon. And the other balloons had helium in them but it leaks out at a slow rate. Haven't you ever gotten a bunch of helium balloons and after a day they are just barely floating or not floating at all. They still look filled but helium will escape thru rubber balloons at a faster rate than mylar balloons.
