I'm sorry to still be off topic---what is this smart brick supposed to smash into? And Buck, am I anywhere close to the c-clamp---can't be as it looks too obvious?

Looks a bit like a hand lathe.

Thanks, qmax!

Pickles, Buck, I thought that I had a "grip" on the answer.

 

[Buck]

miniman is getting warm.

Uncle Bob's answer is the pits.

expat, get a grip on yourself!

What I want to know is, does it pit the olive before or after it dates the cherry?

Sheesh, pacanis. I thought you had some new toys to play with.

 

[Buck]

Let's not pit one member against another.

Uuh, nothing to measure or..... spatulate? at the moment

 

[miniman]

ist it used for knurling or threading a nut (metal kind)

 

[Buck]

Yes it threads something but ya gotta tell me what it threads.

 

[phinz]

It's used to thread spokes on a bicycle.

 

[Buck]

You got it, phinz. You're up.

 

[phinz]

What is this? It's a little higher tech than Buck's, but not by much.

 

[Barbara L]

Is the fact that it is by a plant significant, or is it just there for atmosphere?

[DrThunder88]

Laser pointer?

 

[YT2095]

a Lighter, a mini salt/pepper grinder ?

 

[phinz]

It's for atmosphere, and the quarter is to show size. It lights nothing, grinds nothing and does not contain a LASER.

 

[YT2095]

it`s an Air freshener! or maybe and Ioniser?

 

[pacanis]

That's what I was thinking, YT. An ionizer that runs on a battery. Guess we'll have to wait til Phinz gets to work to see if you're right.
