Mysterious glassware piece
« on: November 26, 2015, 06:07:28 PM »
    I've had this thing laying around for years, and still don't know what it is.  Anybody know?  I believe it's some sort of "alternative medicine" device, and I'm wondering if it has any use in the lab, and just what it does.

There's a small Vigreux column and an aerosol nozzle. maybe somekind of fractional vacuum distillation apparatus for high boiling point solvents.
Chemists do it periodically on table.
