   Oh, Graylox! I guess that was way too easy! YOU ARE THE WINNER! It is one of those old cameras. It's a Kodak Medalist.

   And the winner's prize is Kiss Fight!

   Mentos made a parody of traditional fighting games: instead of hitting your opponent in order to kill him, you kiss your opponent in order to have pleasure and enjoy the moment.

    neither. would it help to say this is the bottom in use, but it's sitting on a table upside down, and it has no moving parts?

    no, that's rust on steel, not stone. whole thing is, oh, 5 inches across and 10 high.

    maizey, quadruple the height of the cylinder on top, and you have it pretty well laid out. the age of this is probably throwing you off, it's an early mass-production version of what now is smooth curves and angles, and very common indeed, with little to large, wide and narrow, long and short. some are specialized for canning, reloading ammo, etc.

    but general use ones can be found all over.

    Is it a funnel?

    you got it, maizey. it's an old funnel when automated manufacture of cylinder shapes became available, (like mass produced cans) but cones were still easier to make by putting a wrinkle in a tube and pressing it into a cone shaped form.

    here's a yellow snapdragon, a twirly fernand a purple flower with a bee.

    Goody, I was going to guess funnel, right off the bat, but I couldn't see the taper in the can shaped part. Now I see it in the full picture.

    Thank for the flowers and fern. Very nice shots. I like the fern the best!

    thanks- ferns are one of the items hard to get proper focus lock on, but for tight macro shots I'm experimenting with ways to get more accurate focus. I first tried a locking tape measure (clumsy in several ways), then a marked stick (parallax error became plain there), now I'm trying a target paddle to lock the focus in line with the lens.

    here's a side view of the current prototype.

    hmm.. wanna shot at G What is it n009?
