Sorry Bodge. This appears to be puzzling the congregation..... Think sheepdog trials!

Dead right. It's a sheherd's whistle. I always have one in my pocket and remember once being in London and using it to attract the attention of a cabby. The locals were impressed!
Next one anyone?

Can you tell me what's different about this well made brass door bolt?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Posted: 22 Sep 2018, 03:47
Is it for fixing vertically at the bottom of a door? You can use your foot on the bit that juts out.
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

First part yes China but the extra bits aren't for foot operation. There is another reason......

Does the extra bit that juts out activate a secondary locking mechanism or a "occupied-vacant" sign ??

Tom, you are getting very close with the first suggestion but you're not there yet.
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

The sticking out bit has to be pressed down to deactivate the locking system?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

It's for double doors and the extra bit is to keep the second door shut. I notice the casing has at least one recess that could keep the bolt in the raised position until it's freed by pressing inwards.

Spot on Tiz! I have its matching bolt on my back door. That has the detent you noted as well and a spring on the back but not the extra lug. Very well made architectural door furniture,

Blocks of material with waste carbon fibre or plastic waste in them a bit like Schwarzite carbon blocks.

Structure of wood?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

Another thought: anything to do with graphene, especially fluorinated graphene structures?
Brane Theory. Schwarzite carbon. Graphene. We do get about don't we when the answer will probably be something simple like Gouda cheese structure!

In that case, how about suggestions for the structure of a cereal component such as Weetabix.....

How about textured vegetable protein?
