Haha, Bumping is turned off on these forums. It was worth a try though. Tongue

The mystery parts are from the video head drum of a VHS video cassette recorder. On a VHS machine the top portion of the drum spins whereas on a Betamax machine the spinning heads protrude through a slot around the drum which remains stationary.
