Whatsit Mystery items - Test your knowledge

This isn't too hard for some. I know what they are, but they're quite odd so I thought I'd just put them here and see if I can entertain you for a bit.

5" long or thereabouts. Two views. These go to an everyday object.

 

Umbrella parts.

 

What Davey said. Those look like bits from the top of a screen door.

 

Reminds me of a crank used on jalousie windows,remember those ?

 

pen parts

 

I haven't any idea at all!

 

Parts of old keys?

 

I agree with Komo...pen parts.

 

Doorknob innards

 

I thought a gauge, or maybe scales? The bloke's response was simply "more junk".

 

Looks like the highest part on the left one, and left-most part on the right one can be pushed down or right respectively, is that correct? That small part is like a square button, no?

 

Parts of the spindle that opens shop blinds?

 

Looks like master skeleton keys.........

 

I'm going with keys

 

Gizmos for G-dammits?

-
I think pen parts with the tops down. The little push button part goes in the top.

 

Manson's got it. The inside of locks. We have so many lock parts we should find a way to make sculptures or something out of them.

 

This post is for Spring. We don't come close to the amount of stuff (or the size!) that he has, but we have the shop full, half the garage and most of a 10' x 10' storage unit. This is after hubby brings the really unwanted stuff to the metal recycling at the dump. I really do have to get creative with old doorknobs.
