#351: An electronic toy or magic eight ball??
#352: ?? Looks like a computer part??
#353: An Anchor?
#354: ??
#355: Saxaphone
#356: A gaff or "hook". For climbing telephone poles. Or in this case,
the gaff looks long enough for a tree climber.

354 - Dunno what it demonstrates, but I'm wagering that the household
appliance is a vacuum cleaner.

354. A toy morter.
A vacuum cleaner hooks up to the base of the "T".
A ball (golf ball?) is inserted into the long end of the pipe.
The ball is accelerated thru the pipe and ejected thru the flap.

Again -- I'm posting from rec.crafts.metalworking.

351) Looks like either a kids electronic game, or perhaps a modern
electronic version of the old "Magic 8 Ball" with floating
answers. (Based on the legends on four embedded LEDs:

Unknown
No
Yes
Sometimes

It appears to also have a display capable of printing a short
word or two, and a pair of buttons on the sides.

352) Again -- I have to refrain from guessing, since this is my
item. :-)

353) Bell -- I think for a sleigh.

354) An interesting item. The flap on the top secured by a single
piece of tape is a one-way valve. If the valve were not paper,
I might guess it to be some form of snorkel, with the longer end
(terminating in a J-hook) being stuck up through the surface of
the water, and the short T connecting to a mouthpiece.

355) Part of the valve linkage on a musical instrument -- either a
brass or a woodwind. I don't know them well enough to be sure,
but I think that the size looks about right for a Saxophone,
with the projection to the left being to attach a neckstrap to
for support.

356) Missing the leather straps which should go through the eyes at
the top. These are a set of climbing spikes -- either for
climbing trees (lumberjack), or for climbing wooden power poles.
In the latter case, they are probably not used as much now as in
the past, since most utility companies use cherrypickers to lift
the worker to the job.

Now to see what others have answered.

Enjoy,
DoN.

Nope -- it was already incommunicado. And it has also donated
some nice ball bearing assemblies, and some really powerful permanent
magnets.

Enjoy,

351. You know those fortune cookies you get with chinese takeout? This
is the Japanese equivalent, but this one you have to take care of or
it'll die, it can learn words like a parrot, and tastes like cod. Beeps
a lot, too.
352. Pornography deposition device.
353. Incomplete wedding ring--still needs chains.
354. Missing a potato and hairspray.
355. Sax and Violins, but without the violins. Looks alto, but I
haven't played in over ten years.
356. S&M equipment.

345. Metric watch.
346. Square peg and round hole uniter.
347. Dunno, but I saw it in a guy's nose at a Rob Zombie concert.
348. Finger pincher.

352 is the head assembly including the coil for the voice coil motor
from a hard disk drive.

353 looks like a sinker used to keep rope under water.


355 looks like a section of a brass musical instrument. Maybe a saxophone?

346 is the outer section of a mortising chisel & bit set.

345 looks like it might be a pocket sized circular slide rule ???

349 is the setup for a simple DC electric motor demonstration
