The handheld Zamboni is constructed from a janitor's mop, the kind with a shaggy cloth bag that is held in place by a wire frame.
A Y-shapped hose connector is jammed into the hole on the top of the mop bag to direct water into each arm of the mop. Slits are cut into the bottom face of the bag so that the water can easily exit.
Connect a hose to the stalk of the Y connector and the handheld Zamboni is ready to go.
To use the Zamboni, start the water flowing, apply the mop head to the ice surface – and keep moving. Never stop moving the mop while it is in contact with the ice surface or it will freeze in place.
Here's the choreography:
- Put the mop head near, but not on, the ice surface.
- Start the water flow.
- While moving, apply the mop to the ice surface.
- When done but before stopping, lift the mop from the ice surface, stop, and cut the water flow.
It's easy to control the water flow. Simply squeeze a kink into the hose to stop the flow and release the kink to start it.

I also have a GBA SP and 2 DS Phats, but they didn't show up for the photoshoot, so they had to be left out for now.
With a tripod, the light lines would all be pretty much horizontal. Not as hard as it looks (or at least I hope that's true).
This is Dr. Fitzgerald's Handheld Ion Emitting pistol. While working for the British Royal Society, Dr. Eduardine Fitzgerald was responsible for many marvels but his crowning achievement as well as his greatest folly was the "Hand-held Ion Emitter" Commissioned by the British Royal Air Navy to fight Sky Pirates for Her Majesty's Service, the pistol was intended to disrupt engines. However, it had unintended consequences for the user and was therefore retired after only three months. This dis-armed model can be seen at the Hereford Museum of Sky Defense in the weapons collection.
she was immediately taken by the size of his hands. they were huge. she couldn't get over it. she was sent to investigate conditions at the giant mountain refugee camp and he invited her into his tent for an interview and she immediately fell in love with him. something in the way he talked to her and what he said. he literally talked her clothes off and she completely forgot about the interview because she found herself in the palm of his massive thick hand undergoing the most intense orgasm of her entire life
