[3Turner]

how about a dishwasher part?
Yes, there is a spring on the left. TO the right is the business end of this object and gets frequent use.

But, it is not a dishwasher part. This object has nothing to do with water. Think dry.

Yes this thing looks very familiar.

Can opener?
It is a very common object in many homes.....but not a can opener. This object is not found in the kitchen.

Nail clippers is it.....for dogs though so I'll take the generic.

[ducko]

[3Turner]

Guess I was wrong. :(
Nah...you were right, I just did not refresh before posting the hint.

Shame I have no clue what in the world a teething ring is :)

[Adamora]

its for when babies start growing teeth and have an urge to bite everything in plain site, so the teething ring saves alot of things around the house.

[Skrim17]

Well my goal for the day is to shoot tons of macro, unfortunately I haven't gotten my camera out yet so it is up for grabs!

[SolidxSnake]

I figured from the name... I didn't know that there was an actual product though.

Glad I still have quite a few years until child time :D

[Adamora]

[andrew748]
