OK, the reusing of items is getting out of hand here. Nearly half of these have already been featured in earlier videos, some multiple times - that "Aztec calendar" thing around the 5:10 mark has been in at least 4 videos already... I'm quite sure this channel is not run by an actual person, so I know it's little to no use asking for anything here - jsut thought I'd put it here in case I'm wrong this being an "automatic" channel...
this also bugs me too. They get the content from reddit, bored panda and a few other sites like that which are more interesting imo. This seems like a lazy AI channel.
Great, the last time this (phone booth-like) "glass structure" at around the 13:00 mark was one of these videos it was identified as space to grow mushrooms - now it is a "mini greenhouse"... Wonder what it will become the next time it is inevitably reused.
These videos are so much fun!! I learn a lot. I like to go poking through antique shops and when you find a curiosity, most times the staff in the shop has no idea what the thing is if it's not labeled. Oh, and what's up with folks finding weird stuff in their couch? The ring cutter I knew because we used them in the ER. It took me a minute in another video to figure out the onion "stone", or card, or whatever you call it. So, what were either of these things doing under couch cushions? 🤔
The item at 2:08 is called a "COVID KEY". I think the item at 3:36 is a type of printing plate used in advertising. They go back 50+ years, maybe even over 100 years.
at 12:22 you identified the apparatus as "wool carding combs". I am a long time wool spinner and I process fleece . I don't know what these are but they are NOT "wool carding combs". Carding and combing are two different wool processes. Wool cards look like sheets of metal velcro hooks mounted on -yup- wood cards. Wool combs have tines that are 4 to 6 inches long and closely spaced, some kinds of combs have up to 5 graduated rows of tines.
Explanation was spot on. We too have goats and they will constantly be sticking their heads through gaps in the fence and get stuck. Sometimes a major challenge getting their head out. So. . for repeat offenders, duct tape a piece of PVC to their horns so they can't get through the fence in the first place.
5:28 Are you sure there? Looks like a Tzolk'in to me... which'd make it Mayan ;) 5:33 Knew that from one of your older vids... since then I learned that it may be used for any kind of cuttlery though ;)
The Aztec calendar is based on the Mayan calendar. They are close enough that I don't think most people could tell them apart without a closer inspection. I know I can't tell them apart without side by side references to compare.
@@Vincent_Beers p.s.: so the Aztec is based on the Mayan... which was based on the Olmecs (never had heard of "Olmec Calendars" before, but the art-style of the face in the middle made me google it).
These are not the answers of the maker of these videos (who, in all likelihood isn't even really a person, but rather an algorythm that assembles videos from content obtained from other websites by defined criteria - hence the lavish reuse of items in multiple videos), but those who answered them on the websites where the images and questions were originally posted - mainly Facebook, Reddit and places like that. That's why sometimes the answers refer to images or texts that we don't get to see - things like "here's another image of this" or "looks identical to something I have, here's an image of that" - and then no image... and sometimes the end of the answers gets cut off - maybe it was stuck behind a "read more" wall at the original site and the algorythm failed to recognize it...
it's as bad as those reddit channels (and reddit itself) that always publish comments that never actually answer the question and are only ever tangentially related, if at all. Bugs the crap out of me... This channel also reposts the same objects, only sometimes with a different answer. Go straight to bored panda, reddit or other sites like that as anything is better than this mindnumbing waste of time with added hellish tinkling music, all AI generated (I assume)
Most likely Kubera Kolam. Each symbol represents a number. Each row totals 72 regardless of direction. 360 ÷ 72 = 5. It is the most basic secret to the structure of navigating the globe. An old Irish Origins story tells the tale of their 'Abraham' going to 'Babel' with others who were all tasked to travel to different positions around the world. Wish I could find the 700s era monk who recorded a legend that must have a real story behind it and more about the importance of the number '72' . . .
7:18 So I tried to do a Google circle search, and the first thing that came up was... "The strange chair with a bowl attachment in my workplace bathroom. What is this thing?" Seriously, though, GCS thought it might be a phlebotomy (blood-drawing) chair. EDIT: I just realized from the answer that the answerer did exactly what I did.
17:07: The numbered squares are "magickal squares" or "kameas" of Saturn. In the West, lead is the metal of Saturn. They were likely used for something magickal or ritualistic.
So many of these videos lead to more questions than answers lol
Like the large pendant one. The question was how do you use it, not where's it from lol.
Yep and then the ones that say there is a picture but we don't get to see it
The last one is the kind of “art” they have in the back section of Spencer’s 😂
Love What is this thing videos 🙏🏻💗
Glad you enjoy it!
That last thingy would be what archeologists call a "ritual item". 🙃

Saw those too. Next will be phone booth for invisible superman.
@@klopez7080 That would be the best answer to date :D

That thing well pre-dated the covid pandemic, it just became more prominent - for obvious reasons.
I thought it was a daguerreotype?
You are wrong about the little white box table. It’s a terrarium table. I had one in the early 70s it’s missing its glass top.
12:17 pretty sure they are actually for cutting curds in cheese making. I am a spinner and carding combs look nothing like these things
Manual ring cutter......that's better than a saw!

I agree. They look like scorers for the base coat of cement render that I saw my builders use to give a key for the next coat of render.
It's a cleaning comb. You can use it to clean out wool cards or carpet brushes.
I commented exactly the same thing! the object looks like a curd cutter for cheese making to me. Looks nothing like a carding comb!
13:10, that's a change booth for superman.
Love these
A "body massager" in quotes, that's a body massager, like those prehistoric "batons" are batons!😋
old teething plates were often pewter (lead and silver, sometimes nickel and/or tin as well in the alloy) because lead is sweet to taste.

We had sheep do that a lot. Had to cut several fence panels. Wish I had thought of that.
I can't believe the question regarding things inside or on vehicles. Doesn't anyone read their owners manual anymore?
That wooden thingy, was a boot jack.
10:33 to seperate the plebs from the patricians...

@@Vincent_Beers Got it... reminds me a bit of "Arabian numerals" being Indian

Too many answers saying "it looks like", " it might be", etc - if you don't actually _know_ please don't just guess

14:21 sometimes called a tailor's ham.
Tailor's ham is differently shaped. Rounded to iron sleeve caps and other curved tailoring details. It LOOKS LIKE A HAM. This does not.
0:40 still doesn't explain what it is lol
Not only told you but also showed you it was to store a folding card table. You must be really young.
Repeat🤨😌😔

pretty sure they are indian prayer things
@@sophroniel Kameas are used in many traditions. The Chinese occult tradition also makes use of this kamea.
The letters all appear to be japanese. I'm on my phone so I can't see all, but i do recognize some of them.
