Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 4,252 | Visit the link, see if you can guess what these items are, post your answers here! http://puzzlephotos.blogspot.com/ Answers are typically posted in a few days. The first to answer all correctly or gets the most correct here at the Stovebolt will, at the very least, get a hardy congratulations ( a minimum of 3 out of the six to qualify for a win.) If all goes smooth and we have some decent participation, we'll try to get a small prize to the winner!! Good Luck!! (Rob, the creator of the contest, has final say on what is correct.) Congratulations to our last winner Jeff ( iowa trucks 59 ), he'll be sitting in the cheering section rootin' for you all! | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 Member | | Member Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 | Aw shoot...Looks like some hard ones.

Hey that 1st tool, kind of looks like the one I offered you a while back. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 4,252 "Hey! I sound like Darth Vader!! | | "Hey! I sound like Darth Vader!! Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 4,252 | Yep, Jeff has to sit out the next two. Well, looks like we've either stumped everyone or no one wants to play. I'm ready to post the answers so...... want to take a stab at it Jeff??? | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 Member | | Member Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 | Ok here goes...
606...Primer remover/installer for shot gun shells
607...Boat cleat
608...ice cleat for a shoe
609...ice shaver
610...Ad screwdriver/boltgauge
611...The surface of a basket ball
Since I'm not offically playing it looks like Gazim is the winner!!, unoffically speaking. Come on guys this is as much fun as working on the trucks themselves. I bet there is a hundred special GM tools in the repair manuals, maybe we could use some of them for this game. Just a thought, MN, its your show and I'm just playing. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 4,252 "Hey! I sound like Darth Vader!! | | "Hey! I sound like Darth Vader!!

607. Boat cleat

Yup, looks like Gazim got three out of six and was the first to do it! Congratulations!!
Jeff, I think you are right. Time to dig in to my tool boxes. Of course, non-tool stuff is allowed as the basketball example above. Let's try to give it a Stovebolt flavor! | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 Member | | Member Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 | Hey my prize came today!!!!

Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 4,252 | I wanted to get the contest off the ground a bit before I started asking for submissions, but...... If anyone would like to send me clear pictures of obscure tools with a full description of what it is used for and how it is used, I will use them in future "What is it?" contests. Of course, doing so will eliminate the sender from that contest as he / she will already know what the object is. My email is [email protected]. Make sure you clearly state in the header that this is for the "What is it?" contest as my filters dump a lot of stuff! Sending of photos releases your rights to them which means I can use them any way I want, dress 'em up in pink tutu's, blah, blah, blah, etc, etc. | | |
