What the Hell Is It?

Is it a loom for weaving circular hotpads out of carpet remnants?

THEN frying them?

No weaving. No Frying. Forget about the carpet piece. That is my own modification. Here is a picture of the original part that went where the carpet is.



There is a motor under the surface on which the white pad lies. Look at the black piece with the "legs." What happens to it when the machine is switched on? What the hell does it do? What can it do? Why would it do that?

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to got get a beer to wash down this vicodin. (that is not a hint)

Another, in the same vein.

Easy. That's a place to store your pitchin' horseshoes.

Ah, it is all clear to me now.

This is an umbrella stand, and the black leggy thing is a rotor attached to the motor. When you turn it on the rotor spins, chewing up the umbrellas.

Then frying them. DEE-licious!

It appears to be like a centrifuge set up.
Washing machine, salad spinner, possibilities.....
It looks very much like a pool ball polisher but I have never seen one with that shaped sections.

The wooden thing looks like a paper towel holder.

I knew you would get that one, Jenni.

The other one is not a paper towel holder. Think Pool. I know you've seen one.

What's this little gadget for? Size is 3-1/2" x 2".

Facepalm! Damn, I feel like a dunce! A chalk holder! Duh. I should have gotten that one because of the pool and the lifting, we use them at the gym as well.

Well done, girl!
And it's great to have you back here.

Oooohhhh. It's so familar, I feel like I've seen it but it's not coming to me. Lemme go make piggy salads and maybe it will come to me while I'm not trying so hard.

How much oil does it hold? How long does it take them to get soft enough to spear with a fondue fork?

You've never played a game of pool in your life, have you?

I posted the kick float didn't I?

"Never trust a man who doesn't play pool."

"Never eat food from a skinny cook." So what?

You may have super-fast internet, but I have one of these. I win!

I don't know if these are so easy they are gimmes or not, but here ya go:

Are those some kind of hair styling thing, for making beehive hairdos?

Yeah, I first thought some kind of hair thing, but now I'm not sure.
Sure as hell isn't a gimme.

Jenni, does it have anything to do with dogs?

@NoCo very close, I'm not sure I can call that an answer but damn close

@Howard No, nothing to do with dogs.

I should have noted the metal things and the white thing are two different items. I'm sorry, the internet went out as I posted and I thought I re-added that comment and I see now that I forgot it. I apologize because that was valuable intel. So basically you have two separate pics here, two separate objects for two separate jobs.

And Howard I still can't get your last one. It almost looks like the magnetic base I use to hold knives but it's too small. Is there a relevant clue without giving it away yet?

Not magnetic. Nothing to do with utensils, knives or other.
The brand name on it is Olympus.

A boomerang for dwarves.

And the spiral things are traps for dyslexic snakes.

Jenni. Are wigs involved?

Or are they for making big, fat curls?
