433 is somewhat like that. 434 is completely different.

Still working on 431, 432, 433, 434.

Just moving them over to this page.......

431

431 - a messy job
432 - handy when the job is far from an outlet (not the 431 job :lol:

)
433 - you would see these in rows and columns in a box
434 - if you are installing a bunch of 433, this would make the job faster

431 is a plunger!!!!

Timbres · **Posted:** Thu Mar 01, 2012 02:59:37 am

432 is an extension cord...probably a 12 foot one.

Timbres · **Posted:** Thu Mar 01, 2012 03:00:20 am

433 must be a circuit breaker switch...

Timbres · **Posted:** Thu Mar 01, 2012 03:01:14 am

Is 434 one of those wire stripper pliers/tools?

This side of the pond, we'd call it a fuse, but I think we're talking about the same thing :wink:

uncadonego · **Posted:** Fri Mar 02, 2012 09:37:55 am

OK, here's four more......

435

#435...Ball-pein hammer head

#437...Insect screen-mesh spline roller... :roll:

#438...Hacksaw blade frame

uncadonego · **Posted:** Fri Mar 02, 2012 14:15:20 pm

You got 435 & 438.

Timbres · **Posted:** Fri Mar 02, 2012 14:32:17 pm

Hmmmm...you tell other people when they get it right but I have to assume :roll:

No I didn't. Didn't even answer that one. Gringo did. Look at your earlier set...and some previous ones too. You post new pics but don't say if I guessed right or not.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sat Mar 03, 2012 15:57:44 pm

See, I thought that last answer was from you obviously, and I answered. Don't turn a game into a fight.

Timbres · **Posted:** Sat Mar 03, 2012 16:51:11 pm

Not fighting. I've enjoyed your game. When my correct guesses were not confirmed earlier I took it as an oversight but it has occurred several times to me now so I'm speaking up. If you look back at my earlier posts you'll see what I mean....otherwise we are back to assuming and I prefer to receive a confirmation of a correct guess (like you gave Gringo). That's all. Just communicating, not fighting.

gringo · **Posted:** Sat Mar 03, 2012 18:11:25 pm

Gee, I'm glad we're not playing for 'sheep stations' here..... :wink:

This quote is from the previous page, where I didn't confirm that gringo's guesses were correct. I simply posted a new set of pics. So your not being treated any differently than anyone else.

You see Timbres, I thought your avatar wasn't actually your photograph. Otherwise I would have made sure to give you a pat on the head and say: "goo'boy" every time you brought the ball back.

Timbres · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 08:36:12 am

You can ridicule and put down if that serves you somehow. I'm not going to respond in kind. I simply stated that I like to know when I get something right. You've posted new pictures before when there were still some items outstanding. If you find my request too demanding or somehow a hungry, dog-like need for affirmation, you've missed the boat. I think we all like the satisfaction of "winning."

I simply gave feedback. Take it or leave it. Nobody is required to play or post anything at the end of the day.

That is what I'm trying to tell you. If you don't like it, don't play.

gringo · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 13:13:23 pm

and moving quickly along....

#437... a scorer or cutter of some description (glass) :?:

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 13:31:17 pm

This pic is a side view of the way you would be looking at it as you use it. There is a piece that fits on this one. Think along the lines of changing the overall look of the inside or outside of a building.

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 13:50:30 pm

437 - handle for paint roller

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 23:30:33 pm

Yep.

Still looking for the tool that got its name from a letter of the alphabet. 436 is adjustable by turning one part of this simple tool.

436

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 23:35:10 pm

439
Canada stamper's last guess may pair up with this fellow some day.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 23:38:32 pm

440
This is not a close-up of my armpit, so you don't have to run away screaming.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sun Mar 04, 2012 23:41:23 pm

441
Over the course of this game, we've looked at close-ups of this certain kind of tool, but different kinds of the same tool specialized for the job. This is just another specialized kind of this commonly used tool.

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 01:36:53 am

440 - steel wool

gavin-h · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 05:03:56 am

441 - wire cutters ?

uncadonego · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 12:54:21 pm

This side of the pond we call them diagonal cutters.

Give me a sec to put up two more replacements.

One more hint for 436 before I back up the perspective a bit. The silvery coloured portion of the tool can be moved closer or farther from the enamel green body.

439 is still a good hint. For now anyway.....

uncadonego · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 12:58:37 pm

442
This pic is cropped square, but this actually goes on a rotary tool. It's actually round.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 13:01:40 pm

443
So we're still working on 436, 439, 442, & 443. With spring coming soon, I may get some more organic type of close-up shots by the time we get through these Canadian Tire things.

Oh, just thought of a good clue for this pic. The Wizard of Oz. If I only had a heart. :wink:

gringo · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 14:20:25 pm

#436...It's a 'G' clamp :idea:

#442...Sanding disc

#443...Axe or tomahawk head :!:

uncadonego · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 16:26:35 pm

C clamp, but they're the same thing! :lol:

Go ahead....Google images search G clamp, then C clamp!

All that's left is 439. Remember, if you bought a paint roller, you probably bought this too... :wink:

gringo · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 18:13:57 pm

#439...paint roller dryer :?:

uncadonego · **Posted:** Mon Mar 05, 2012 18:41:27 pm

Nope. Don't overthink it. Look at the picture. You've looked at this at the hardware or home improvement store a thousand times.

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Tue Mar 06, 2012 00:10:17 am

439 - handle on a can of paint

I can't believe how many times I've looked at these and never noticed what they looked like :shock:

uncadonego · **Posted:** Tue Mar 06, 2012 04:28:08 am

Hahaaaa......! You see! You look at stuff all the time and your brain remembers it somewhere, you just need the right trigger to bring it out!

A couple out of this batch are mechanical things. I'll hold off on clues for now.

Wow, next batch is going to be in the 450's. When I started this game I imagined doing about 30 or 40 images.... :lol:

gringo · **Posted:** Tue Mar 06, 2012 09:42:58 am

#444...Pulley wheel

#445...Wooden dowel lengths

#446...Rope fibres
