A frying what-do-you-call-it-flapper-thingy? I'm falling asleep...

[guitarman710]

A frying what-do-you-call-it-flapper-thingy? I'm falling asleep...

Good try and I knew that disclosing the material might throw some people off. Not for cooking at all though....

[JBerlotti]

Speaker holes of a telephone?

[tonylong]

Are they automotive?

[guitarman710]

Speaker holes of a telephone?

Nope. Nothing to do with communications devices.

Are they automotive?

Not automotive either.

[Skrim17]

cheese grater?

[Spidy]

Iron?

[SingingSabre]

Something for a musical instrument?

[Nistelrooydude]

[guitarman710]

Yeah, I was thinking something on a guitar.


Not on a guitar, but close to one often...

Something for a musical instrument?

Yes, but the quote before was more specific

Iron?

Nope.

Not that either.

[SingingSabre]

A pick?

[Nistelrooydude]

Something on an amp? Or a drum?

[guitarman710]

Ok, I guess my last hint made it too easy....Good guess though. I enjoyed my first crack at this competition. Here is the full "pic" hahaha....sorry. :D

[Guineh]

Pssst... anyone want to get the game moving again?

[BearLeeAlive]

I can, just give me a minute to process the shot.

[Chet]

It's been 2 minutes already.

[BearLeeAlive]

Give this one a go.

[BearLeeAlive]

A foot after gangrene has set in?
Close :p
Something leather?
Kinda vague, but no.
I am looking for a specific answer. :D

[BearLeeAlive]

Scorched earth?
Nope

Gotta run out for a wee bit, back in an hour

[aseainthesky]

Coffee bean?

[RandyMN]

Looks like something that was melted at some point and hardened.

Also looks like the bottom of a tennis shoe but it appears too hard.

[jessicamedwards]

Tar from the ground?

[BearLeeAlive]

Tar from the ground?
No, nope & notta

[JBerlotti]

Dried up terd?

[tomjd]

is it metalic?

[JLatimer]

A hoof?

[tonylong]

A dog's paw?

[BearLeeAlive]

Dried up terd?
Whatchoo callin' me? :confused: :lol:
Nope
is it metalic?
What is with all the vagueness? If we just keep eliminating what it is made of or not, I might as well just say way it is. :D
But, no.
A hoof?
Notta
A dog's paw?
Nuh uh.

[Chet]

A glove?

[Chet]

A mitt?

[Flo]

Part of a Saddle?

[BearLeeAlive]

A glove?

A mitt?

No to all.

[whitedog]

My wife's attempt at cooking?

[tomd]

charcoal grill?

[BearLeeAlive]

My wife's attempt at cooking?
I take it she does not venture on her? :lol:
charcoal grill?
Nope

[RandyMN]

From answers I'd guess it's the bottom of some kind of shoe, but you said no to my tennis shoe...

Is it something a person would wear? I see sand in the cracks, so my second guess would be a closeup of a tire.

Your second guess would be right then.

Good job, looking forward to a tougher one now.;)

Wow! So anyone that wants next go right ahead since I am not at home to grab a photo.

[Chet]

B4 today, the last post was 3 weeks ago. I think we can wait till you come up with macro goodness.

[RandyMN]

Alright, to avoid another three week delay I found something available here that I alread took.

Be heading out so I'll check in about an hour and see if anyone guessed correctly. Not sure how hard this one will be.

[RandyMN]

So many guesses, I'm overwhelmed!

[Chet]

Looks like something off of your rusted old gas grill sitting outside.

[tomd]

So many guesses, I'm overwhelmed!

at least no one has gotten it right yet!

[RandyMN]

Looks like something off of your rusted old gas grill sitting outside.

You are on the right path but not quite.

[jr#8]

looks like some type of exhaust/muffler.

[RandyMN]

looks like some type of exhaust/muffler.

Now your getting even closer on the exhaust part. But not a muffler since this device makes no noise. At least not loud noise.

And it does sit in the back yard.

[RandyMN]

Well, no one is guessing so I'll move further out.

[BearLeeAlive]

It is a broken, rusty old valve handle that is stuck in the open position on some type of metal device. :p

[Chet]

It is a broken, rusty old valve handle that is stuck in the closed position on some type of metal device.

[BearLeeAlive]

It is a broken, rusty old valve handle that is stuck in the closed position on some type of metal device.
Hey, you took my next guess, meany head. :p

[RandyMN]

It is a broken, rusty old valve handle that is stuck in the open position on some type of metal device. :p

Nope, although somewhat true, it's not right.

[Chet]

Hey, you took my next guess, meany head. :p

Excuse me? You said OPEN, I said CLOSED! Completely different answers!

[RandyMN]

It is a broken, rusty old valve handle that is stuck in the closed position on some type of metal device.

Copy Cat

[RandyMN]

And it's not broken. It works just fine.

[Skrim17]

part of a BBQ?

[RandyMN]

part of a BBQ?

Someone already guessed that. Good guess though, and some could possibly use this to barbeque, but that is not what it was meant for. Or at least not at our house.

It has another purpose.

[Chet]

Outdoor gas heater?

[Chet]

Colman lantern light thingy?

[RandyMN]

Colman lantern light thingy?

No, but if one wanted to lug this with it would work great at the camping site.

[RandyMN]

Outdoor gas heater?

You are close, but not quite right.

[Chet]

Lawnmower?

[Chet]

Bobcat?

[RandyMN]

In fact, no gas is involved at all here.

[Chet]

Outdoor air conditioner?

[RandyMN]

No lawnmower and no bobcat. No engine at all.

But it does produce heat.

[RandyMN]

And the heat is not from a compressor. This thing not powered by anything. But it does use fuel.

Dinner time, so I guess I'll check back.

Maybe after dinner my wife and I will go out and sit in front of this.

[RandyMN]

Outdoor gas heater?


With all this fun I'm thinking maybe I should give you credit since you are so close. It is in fact an outdoor heater of sorts but it's not gas.

It's wood and it's a CHIMENEA.

I would have preferred to hear an outdoor fireplace. But I have to go have dinner now and I won't have the photo to show tomorrow at work.

[BearLeeAlive]

Excuse me? You said OPEN, I said CLOSED! Completely different answers!
You plagiarized my answer, and just changed one word. I say the mods should put you in detention for that.

[Chet]

Been there done that. And plagiarism got me through school.

Someone going to post?

[BearLeeAlive]

Someone going to post?
You're go.

[Chet]

Go where?

[BearLeeAlive]

Go where?
Not potty.

[Chet]

So you just want me to hold it all day? Can't do that, it's just not healthy.

[BearLeeAlive]

What's the big deal, you are usually full of it anyway. ;) :lol:

[Guineh]

They ought to lock him in the Wedding forum.

[Chet]

Go...

[Chet]

If no one guess you may not have a chance.

[tomd]

a symbol from money?

[Flo]

Nope to all. I'm at work, so I took a picture of a symbol on something.

Is this a universal symbol?:confused:

[Chet]

Nope probably not. Just saw it on this precision instrument and decided to take a picture of it.

[Daniel2000]

LOL, just messing with ya. :D

Nope.

Closer to something you use to measure things with a dial on it the can open to 12".

[jr#8]

Inside or outside calipers, or micrometer.

[Chet]
