what is this?

You cannot predrill with this, it just shreds wood. What exactly is this thing even used for? #Woodworking #DIY #Tools #HelpNeeded #WhatIsThis

What can I use it for? And what is the right name for this?

I just came into possession of this old electric drill that has a gear reduction attachment bolted to the front. I included a picture of the find. This thing converts the drill's high RPM into serious low-speed torque. It looks like it could turn the crank on a small submarine, but its original purpose was actually bizarre. It was originally used on chicken farms to slowly pull a long roll of paper liner in battery cages. I am determined to find a cool modern application for this. And does anyone know a name for this tool? (Google's AI thinks it's a nibbler for metal work - nope.) Need serious suggestions. #Tools #WhatIsThis #DIY #HighTorque #OldTools

What is This Axe-Hammer-Pliers Hybrid Tool?

I need the tool experts to weigh in on this thing I just snagged at the thrift store. I tried a quick reverse image search, and Google is telling me it is a tool for installing and removing wheel weights on car tires. I was a little skeptical because the pictures Google showed me did not have the axe part at all. #ToolID #WhatIsThis #ThriftStoreFind #ToolMystery #MechanicHelp #DIYTools

My Grandma Just Tried to Give Me This Bizarre Red Tool. What the Heck Is It?

SOS! This Orange Slime Is Dripping Down My Walls. What on Earth Is This?

A friend of mine mentioned seeing something kind of similar in an old house when it was raining a lot, and it has been pouring here lately. This slime looks like it is weeping right through the paint. Has anyone seen this horror movie substance before? Please tell me this is not some highly toxic type of fungus #ApartmentNightmare #WhatIsThis #MysterySlime #HelpNeeded #HomeRepair

My car is full of tortilla chips and I'm not sure why

I opened my hood today to refill the windshield washer fluid and saw something I still can't believe. What appears to be a big pile of tortilla chips was sitting there. I was so confused. I am really hoping there is another explanation for this. Could they be fallen tree leaves that somehow got all fried and bubbly? I just cannot wrap my head around a pile of chips being in there. I don't even like tortilla chips. #CarProblems #WeirdFinds #WhatIsThis #AutoRepair #CarMaintenance #Cars #CarRepair

I found this thing under my bed and I have no idea what it is

I was cleaning my room and moving all my random stuff when I just found this under my bed. It's a split lemon and it has these weird things coming out of it. I have no idea what it is or why it was there. My room is a mess but this is a new level of weird for me. #WhatIsThis #HelpNeeded #WeirdFinds #StrangeObject #HouseMysteries #HomeOrganization #Cleaning

Someone Wired Two Car Batteries To A Trash Can By A Tree 🤔

It's two car batteries, all wired up and connected to a garbage can. I have no idea what is going on here. For what it's worth, I'm almost positive this tree has Dutch elm disease. Perhaps that is somehow related. I'm just so curious if this is some kind of testing contraption. They've just been sitting there ever since the second battery was wired up. #WeirdFinds #Gardening #Home #WhatIsThis #TreeCare #HelpNeeded

My wife and I are losing our minds over this mystery structure. What is it?! 🤯

My wife and I keep driving past this thing on the side of the road in Oregon, and we have to know what it is. It's about 15 feet tall and just sits there at the end of a driveway. The bottom part has a glass window facing the driveway, but it looks totally empty inside. We have no idea what it could be. We have thrown out every guess we can think of, like maybe it's some kind of watchtower, a giant birdhouse, or even a weird deer feeder. My wife is honestly losing her mind trying to figure it out every time we drive by. Someone has to know what this is. We would be so grateful for any ideas you might have. #MysterySolved #Oregon #WhatIsThis #HelpNeeded #WeirdFinds #Traffic #RoadsideAttractions
