Current one has me stumped too.

Not so bad. Ask anyone who lived through the depression. A way to save money.

I pretty much have no idea on any of the things that have turned up in that thread :)

Wonder if I could try one for auto parts? More a guy thing. Still I wonder who would be better at it.


Auto parts or tools could be fun. how about airplane parts?

I think a parts thread would be fun. I probably would not know any of the answers, but I might amuse some of you with my really, really, really bad guesses.

Now just name the function of the part or do you want to have to come up with the manufacturers part/model number :)

Mystery Landscape game appears to be frozen.

We know Ian has health issues so there is no fault. I hope he is on the mend now.

I think it is time for the mods to start the ball rolling again. They could either do a reverse image search and see if the right answer has been posted or pick a new photo.

As Victor posted the right answer, it's his turn to post a new pic.

I think I was one of the first to generally describe it, and Angela came up with the camp fire use. We used ours over an open coal fire in the kitchen. The confusion has arisen not because of how it is used, but for slightly different purposes in the UK and the States.


Yes, that's whey I quoted you and said I wish I had posted sooner. I thought you got it right. He gave the win to me because I posted several potential uses and a picture of almost the same one he showed.

At first I was not certain if He gave the win to you or me. But he sent me a PM giving it to me.

Now you point out that a Mezzaluna is a Pizza cutter. Same problem. I had said no to Angela but you in listing it's other uses wins. So take it away.

Mystery kitchen tool.
I think a reverse image search should not be allowed. A straight search, should be ok.
Up to Carlos tho.

I did not use a reverse image search. I did, however, have to resort to a straight google search though. I have never seen some of the tools displayed in the thread.

I agree that an image search would be unfair, but I expect the only way to answer is to use Google or other text search tools. The idea is to expand knowledge. Take what you know or think you know about the tool and expand it.
