Salad spinner?
Yea, if the salad is your backyard! - looks more like a lawn mower of some sort :p

Ben is right, the outside is cast iron ;)
Iron would be a bit heavy for a salad spinner :D

Do we ever get the answer? Or do we have to keep guessing?
Just Dahlia

You keep guessing until some one gets it right:)

Vac impellor from a Tyson vacuum cleaner.
Wow! That's scary specific. You sound like you really know what it is. :eek:
Okay, I'm going to say it with confidence.
It is a German manufactured doohicky thingamabob made of indestructible cast iron. :)

Something in a car. :)
This is the closest answer so far... it is indeed something in a car ;)

Do you really want me to list the 4 things I can name that are in a car? Two of them aren't even metal. :(
Fan belt?
Engine?
Wheel?
Steering wheel?
The cooling thingy
The thing that makes the vroom sound
The thing that squeaks when you hit a bump
Am I close?
Alty
Apr 27, 2010, 09:12 PM
Are you sure it's not a hubcap. Oooh, it's a rim!
hheath541
Apr 27, 2010, 09:16 PM
Catalytic converter.
OK, I really don't have any idea what that is or what it looks like, but someone stole the one off my mom's car, so it's in my head.
hheath541
Apr 27, 2010, 09:18 PM
Radiator?
Alternator?
Carburetor?
OK, I think that's all the -ators in cars, that I know the names of.
Alty
Apr 27, 2010, 09:26 PM
Car lighter.
Ash tray.
Rim, rim, rim!
Can you give us a hint?

The more I look at it the more it looks like one of those smoke free ash trays.
You put your cigarette in the little grooves, you push the middle button and the fan thingy opens up and sucks the ashes and smoke into a bowl thingy attachment.
Are you seeing it, because that's all I can see now. ;)

Fan belt thingy that cools the radiator?

I just want to point out that I already said fan belt. I didn't include the thingy that cools the radiator though.
If you're right we have to share the prize.

We have guesses here. Is anyone right, or close?

Oooh... I'm sending this to Sneezy.
Be prepared to lose! Muwhahahahahahaha. And no sharsies. Pflllt. :)

It can't be a rim. Rims don't have bolt-end-thingies sticking out of them.
friend4u178
Apr 27, 2010, 10:02 PM
Definitely looks like something that spins though

Unless your James Bond and then there are lethal things attached:)

I think brake discs are flat, but I could be wrong.
M, call Shazzy, you're close to her neck of the woods. Get her to come back and give us a hint or tell us if anyone got it right.
I won't be able to sleep until I know.
SHAZZY!! ;)

It's a rim off James Bonds car. :)
There, now I've got it. ;)
Just Dahlia
Apr 27, 2010, 10:29 PM
This is the closest answer so far... it is indeed something in a car ;)
I'm pretty sure it's not in my car. Is it in all cars:confused:

Apr 27, 2010, 10:34 PM
Oooh, I think I've got it.
It's the thingy that hold the round thing that you need to change every once in a while. You can see it when you open the hood of the car.
Darnit, what's the technical term for it?
Maybe we should post a picture of this in the Car forum, ask the experts. :)
Just Dahlia
Apr 27, 2010, 10:34 PM
Sorry M, I didn't see you already posted the brake thing:o
Alty

Anyone notice that the ads on the right hand side of the thread are all about car parts? The site knows what it is but we can't figure it out.
That's just sad.

YouTube - Forced Induction - Supercharger vs. Turbo Charger (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGdg2Fd2WQY)
Most cars don't have one.
The thing on top of car hoods is a "Hood scoop" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hood_scoop
Large ones show up when there is an intercooler mounted on top of the engine.
