Post subject:  Prop Parts: The Motion Tracker (pump widget) Part I
Ok Gents
Like a fair few of you here i've been putting together a Motion Tracker made from all of the original parts....... that is all of the original parts that we know of!

Unfortunately the single most "need to know" item since the film came out has been the "pump widget" or "thingy" that has eluded us...

...UNTIL NOW!!!!!!!!

Fanfare and gifts in the post please 8)

I hope you have a similar grin on your face that I had when one of my colleagues from our small network of real prop part finders dropped this into my hand while sharing a beer in a pub on friday evening.

Unfortunately I couldn't get to a computer sooner, but you can trust that Harry recieved a txt within minutes :lol:

Special thanks to Adrian & John on this one 8)

Yikes! Nice find.

I guess this puts you in the ranks with our number one finder of obscure objects, "Pulesriflefan."

If I'm not mistaken, I thought this thing was some kind of aquarium pump widget but from the looks of it (the metal finish) it looks to be some kind of automotive or similar gizmo.

A man may fight for many things: his country, his principles, his friends, the glistening tear on the cheek of a golden child. But personally I'd mud wrestle my own mother for a ton of cash, an amusing clock, and a sack of French porn.

Always looked like a windshield washer pump to me.

Great find!

Come on, spill 'em.
I looked for HOURS at various pumps and aquarium paraffinellium, to no avail. The itch needs scratching.

Ok you've all suffered enough... it's the back of a pressure gauge which is nowadays used on specialist medical equipment amongst other things, and to top it off my mates have been walking past them on a shelf at work for bloomin years.....

I haven't covered the front markings to be sneaky but more to cover where this one came from, we are contacting the suppliers direct to see about getting some more if anyone is interested.
