hydraulic brass foaminator

During the enterprise of invention, you sometimes require the use of a shapeless gray foam. Or, at the very least, you might require it one day, and so some tinker prudently got ahead of the problem and invented the brass foaminator. Inscribed on the base: 'All the foam, none of the sadness at maybe one day needing foam and not having it'.

Perfect

Like a brass foaminator, the hydraulic brass foaminator is a foam generation machine. However, hydraulic brass foaminators also serve another purpose - they are power conversion mechanisms.

A hydraulic brass foaminator takes in power from an electrical grid and converts it to hydraulic power, which it outputs to attached liquid conduits.[1][2] An example of a hydraulic brass foaminator in use can be seen in Grit Gate, near Q Girl's workbench, where a hydraulic brass foaminator takes in electrical power from nearby power lines and then outputs hydraulic power through glass hydraulic pipes to a nearby liquid-cooled unicomputer.
