Identify This. No. 66

Todays object is a great turn - can you work out what sort of turn it is?

Yestderday you saw...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The issue yesterday is to decide what sort of fitting it was... Cherrill got it... Yahaaaah!

Cherrill - Just found this.......:-) One of those buttons that pushes in, on a door, then the door closes and it pops into the hole? keeps the door closed.

Yes, it is a door catch to my food pantry, in the middle of being cleaned up prior to being painted. The sprung ball-bearing slips into a hole in the frame and keeps the door closed. Doesn't seem to keep the kids out somehow! LOL>

Congratulations Cherrill... Nice one.

Honorable mentions to...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Howard N - A fitting it may be, but certainly rusted, as is the screw type fastener upper left. I can not make out the glyphs beneath the screw head, probably Egyptian. I'd guess part of a lock assembly to a recently discovered tomb. Net says:-->> Nice idea oh waffly one! LOL. But wrong... However, a Doohicky Award!!! Yeeeeeehaaaaa!

Nancy Holte - NAs for today's photo, I'm thinking a shot putt (or is that put) stuck in foam. I know it's wrong, but hey, that's what I see and I'm kind of tired. Net says:-->> Wrong. But an interesting interpretation. So a Doohicky award!! Yeee harrrh!

Shanne - screws and plate to a hinge? with the edge of the door underneath? Net says:-->> Cool try but not quite. Good attempt.

Sue Wilde - I'm getting it right today. It's a particularly delightful piece of abstract art. Anyone care to argue with me? Net says:-->> Yeha! Me. Its wrong! LOL.

Kathy A - Something mouldy I think! Net says:-->> Nope! Not even close. LOL.

Camille Bisson - spray foam insulation that has mildew on it, the kind you put around windows, doors, that sort of stuff, and then take a razor blade and cut off all the excess. Net says:-->> Nice idea but miles off tonight. LOL. Better luck tomorrow.

Steven Galvin - Is it a rusty pair of scissors? Net says:-->> Rusty something. Wrong. LOL.

Liz (fotomama) - something you pulled out of the waaayyy back of your refrigerator that nobody wanted to eat so you thought you could just shut the door on it? Net says:-->> Oooops! No, but a Doohicky Award! Yaahy!

Jen E - looks like some kind of old plating screwed to an even older wall? Net says:-->> Good try, but not good enough! Not screwed to a wall! LOL.

LisLee - lock on a window. Net says:-->> Nearly but not. A door, its on a door! LOL>

scooter - No idea, looks like an old gross screw and a cap beside it. Net says:-->> I think it is genuine 1950s door furniture, in brass and still working well. Yehhha! they don't make em like that anymore!

Great fun - thanks. I hope you had fun too.

See you tomorrow.
Enjoy!

It's not my turn, must be your turn! This is a hardware store item--that's my guess! I've never seen one of these sold at a mall or department store!

Lug wrench according to my mother. Every driver should know how to use one of these.

Looks like the device I use for opening the cupboard to my gas meter. it has a triangle hole on the arm that's facing down, a circle hole on the right arm and a smaller square on the left arm. I don't know the actual name of these type of keys but Im sure you wont hold that against me!

This is actually a specialized tool for a very specific vehicle, which has different ends to fit sump plugs; gear box drain plugs; differential and possibly some other part of the vehicle...but it is very old and specialised. It is, no doubt, European. Could also be the bits to adjust the toilet.

And...BTW...I still reckon I got yesterday right...
