The "What is it?" thread - Part II

[shotokan101]

Garlic press.

Top of a flower vase.

...and neither of those either

 

[Jan K.]

Microphone (or left-over from)?

..so what's the new lens then ?

Just a very old Nikkor...

Must go out for some shooting!

 

[Nod]

Enjoy!

Miniature water feature (indoor fountain type of thing)?

 

[Farmerjim]

Is it a camping gas burner, (that's what the blue is)must be a new one 'cos there's no burn marks.
This answer's rubbish isn't it?

 

[Phil-D]

I see the fingers as a reflection ........

Come on :rules:......at least let me have the glory of getting something right

unless I'm wrong of course

Nope

Well let's just say that it's not my butt-cheeks

"Hell Yes..... it's rubbish - but creative rubbish "

Well let's just say that it's not my butt-cheeks

Now after seeing the full picture......if I wanted to be really cheeky..........I could say that the reflection looks like an ar*e to me

but I won't

so you were going to go with "chrome butt-plug" next then ?

 

[Jan K.]

Sorry about the delay... 300 shots with new toy!

Enjoy!

Miniature water feature (indoor fountain type of thing)?

No... it's a lens...

Jim

Ahhh! That's not at all, what I imagined!

The "fingers" either, I see!


It's getting harder to come up new objects, isn't it?

But anyway, here's my take...

 

[Pete Allen]

A rechargeable battery?

 

[shotokan101]

underside of a laptop ?

 

[Jan K.]

Noeh... not quite...


I may not be back until later tonight... so good luck!

 

[Sonriendo]

Stapler?

 

[shotokan101]

removeable laptop drive ?

 

[Pete Allen]

Ok, a laptop battery.

 

[g8ina]

Its a flange on a plinth.

 

[Jan K.]

Stapler?

Again? No!

removeable laptop drive ?

Yeah... that's not even close!

Ok, a laptop battery.

Allright then, no!

Its a flange on a plinth.

Hmmm... not sure, if... you mean, like this? https://www.google.com/search?q=plinth

If yes, no.

 

[g8ina]

Sorry Jan, its a UK in joke from Hello Cheeky or ISIHAC....

 

[Jan K.]

Sorry Jan, its a UK in joke from Hello Cheeky or ISIHAC....

*google Hello Cheeky*

Ah! suddenly remembers two radio shows, I used to enjoy over here, My Word and My Music...


*google ISIHAC*

Ah! Penny drops!


Too early for a larger shot. :nono: ...but it's not a crop and the detail is used four times!

 

[nath2hig]

Knife sharpener?

 

[Farmerjim]

Turgid gizzard?

 

[Jan K.]

Knife sharpener?

Nah, it's plastic...

Turgid gizzard?

*runs off to old friend google*

*stares at search results*

*googles each word*

:bang:



No, it's not "bloated ventriculus"!

 

[Farmerjim]

:bang:



No, it's not "bloated ventriculus"!

Sorry Jan, that was mean of me:shake:

 

[Jan K.]

Sorry Jan, that was mean of me :shake:

The only mean things, I've come across here, are Jim's clues!


So bring it on, I love a good challenge!

And the google searches sometimes brings up something totally unrelated, but very interesting and - Voila! another evening wasted!

 

[kendo1]

Drawer runner?

 

[Jan K.]

Hint: it's a close-up... width of top "tounge" is 3mm.

 

[Tigger.ufo]

Plastic clip?

 

[Nod]

Retaining bolt/catch but I'm guessing you want to know what it's on!!!

 

[Strike]

Curtain rail.

 

[Jan K.]

Sorry, it's a no to all...

Btw. this is the old version, the new ones are much better...

 

[frank]

Is it some sort of sliding guide or slide rule for a techy drawing board or painters easel?

 

[Jan K.]

No, Frank, but it is japanese!

A couple of more corners... mirrod...

 

[Tigger.ufo]

Lens cap?

 

[shotokan101]

Lens cap?

...I'm quite liking this...

 

[Nod]

I would be liking it more if there weren't (allegedly!) 4 of the details on the item...

I know what you mean - depends on how "old" this one is - could certainly be 4 of them on the newer spring-clip "pinch type" ones.... :shrug:
