(This photo shows a "part" of a mystery object from my life. The challenge? Guess what the object is and the function of the object.

---

If you can, post in Spanish and English, and, if clues are needed I will post them "along the way" so keep your eyes "peeled". And, a new rule for my game friends - you can post "multiple times" of course but please - one guess per post! That gives everyone "present" a chance to have a "stab at it" and makes it easier for me to follow the thread and the answers. Thanks everyone

Annie, maybe you could indicate for each object, at least how big it is, in the text itself, or in a comment? - 00494d19, Aug 4, 2010

Hola Heidita...I do sometimes give a measurement, depending on how "difficult" I feel the MO is :o - nonombre, Aug 4, 2010

Y este vez mi objeto misterioso es aproximadamente treinta centímetros :o - nonombre, Aug 4, 2010

hmmm - 00494d19, Aug 4, 2010

Is that bit of purple part of the object or just part of the background? Is it ok to ask that? - sagiia, Aug 4, 2010

Good point Sagiia - no the purply/pink this is just something I use as a "dropsheet" for my mystery objects ! - nonombre, Aug 4, 2010

I love these threads, Annie, although I often have NO idea whatsoever what the object is! - --Mariana--, Aug 4, 2010

Marianne - you never know - one day you might "look" and you will "know" immediately! - nonombre, Aug 4, 2010

Answer 1

That looks like my pop rivet tool. Una herramienta de las remaches.

¿Sabes qué Leeh? Tienes razon. Mi objecto misterioso es una remachadora. ¡Bien hecho! - nonombre, Aug 4, 2010

I had to look up the word fontanero. Mi hijo esta un fontanero. - Leeh, Aug 5, 2010

Answer 2

Hmmm ..... Parece como las partes de una remachadora que yo tengo, pero el mío es azul. ¿Podría ser una remachadora?

Hmmm......It looks like the parts of a riveter that I have, only mine is blue. Could it be a riveter?

I shouldn't have bothered trying to find a photo of it. Now Leeh beat me to it! - sagiia, Aug 4, 2010

Sagiia - you were pipped at the post by Leeh - next time perhaps :o - nonombre, Aug 4, 2010
