The super-macro guessing game

[ferny]

Radiator thermostat?

 

[jadin]

some sort of air in/out-take like a blow-dryer, or air-purifier type thing.

 

[dalebe]

yes we have a winner, well done ferny, it is a radiator thermostat.. :thumbup:

 

[ferny]

Ok, I've got three images of the same object each at a different magnification. I'll post a new version when it looks like you won't get the answer. They're snapshots really. Only took two second to take the lot. That explains the poor quality.

I'll give you a clue. Think "English" rather than "American".

 

[dalebe]

is it frost?

 

[ferny]

Nope. It's not natural in nature. It's made in a factory and is in lots of homes.

 

[dalebe]

it's fibreglass loft insulation.

 

[ferny]

Nonono. You'll see why it's a big no later! :mrgreen:

I'll post another then.

 

[Meysha]

It looks like those chinese rice noodle things. But I don't know how that's English and not American.

 

[dalebe]

is it carpet underlay?

 

[dalebe]

or it could be spiderweb..

 

[jadin]

tea bag!

 

[dalebe]

yeah i'll bet your right jadin, a teabag, very british!

 

[ferny]

tea bag!

What?!?! How dare you! You're so insulting sometimes!

Oh, that was your guess.


Correct.

 

[dalebe]

wow incredible magnification! superb..
