Nope, I forgot to mention that this photo is a close-up, approximately six
times larger than actual size.

249. 2/3 wire stripper

Not a wire stripper.

250. Nail set

It could be used as one, but according to the seller it's something else.

251. Drywall anchor

It's used with drywall, but it's not an anchor.

252. Guy wire cable clamp

Nope

253. Piping installation tool

I don't know what this one is, I'm still trying to verify it on the web.

251. Drywall anchor

It's used with drywall, but it's not an anchor.

I take that back, I looks like it is an anchor so this answer is correct. I
thought an anchor was something that a screw was screwed into, but I guess
it applies to a wider variety of items.

Actually, you screw a screw into the #251, it's not much use otherwise.

Figured I'd give this a try;

248) Hand exerciser

249) No clue, but it looks painful

250) No idea, is the top right end open?

251) Drywall anchor

252) Hold down dogs of some sort?

253) Again no idea, but it too looks painful.

Hmmm, only able to guess at 3 out of 6, oh well.

Yes, except there is no second screw, the end that you can't see is screwed
with a phillips head driver.

But there *should* be. The Phillips driver screws this into the
wall, and then a long metal screw is put into the center of the first,
and it shifts the point, turning it sideway, and clamps down on the back
of the drywall with it. They come in a clear plastic box with several
of these, and an equal number of the screws to put into them once they
are seated in the drywall.

252 some form of adjustable vice jaws

Correct.

In particular, they look like jaws to fit inside the normal vise
jaws, to grip pipe or other round stock.


253 for separating two (hot) wires ? - or cutting through

No bets on that one.

Don is completely correct - my entire office is partitioned
with (what we call in UK) plaster board. The board is not
strong enough to hold pictures or maps using a normal screw
or tack. this thing you have is pushed into the plaster
board - then its external thread is used to pull it all the
way into the soft wall till its head is flush, then the
smaller fine metal screw is used to attach 'whatever' to
the wall via the plastic screw.

I have a tv screen held to wall with them - so I sure hope
they work!

Aha! I have a mirror which has a back likely intended to take
something like this, but I'd never seen the actual device before.

Basically the mirror (which is quite heavy) has a wooden back with a
round hole partially covered at the top by a metal strap, making a
D-shaped opening to a round hole. It's hanging now by an L-shaped-hook, but
if the hook were to rotate....

Hi,
#248 looks like the filament of a light bulb of
some sort.

Thanks for the fun

There are various names for it here in the USA. The most common
(at least in the Washington DC vicinity) is "drywall", though I first
learned "sheetrock" down in South Texas. (It may have been a brand
name -- I was just a kid at the time.)

Ouch! A standard CRT, or one of the flat-panel LCD ones? If
the former, it will be cantilevering a pull on the upper ones. These
things are stronger in sheer than in tension.

If it is a true CRT, I would suggest that the support be of the
form:

Use a fixed-pitch font to avoid distortion of the image.
Courier should work well.

Wherever you see an 'x' on the drawing above, you want a line of
the screws -- spaced something like 8" (200mm) apart. Much closer, and
you will weaken the drywall. Much farther apart, and you won't have
enough strength.

Where there are rows closer than that distance apart, stagger
the screws like this:

The bottom row of screws offers the least support -- but it

Correct, it's an old 750 watt GE projection bulb. Not sure if it still
works, the glass is just a little loose in the base so I'm not sure if I
want to give it a try.

The weight that unscrewed into two pieces was #244, I haven't been able to
confirm what it was used with, I'm guessing some type of scale.

But there *should* be. The Phillips driver screws this into the
wall, and then a long metal screw is put into the center of the first,

back
of the drywall with it. They come in a clear plastic box with several
of these, and an equal number of the screws to put into them once they

The one in my photo is different than the type you have in mind, there is no
second screw for this one. If you haven't already seen the link that I
posted previously, have a look at this site for instructions for this one:
