The super-macro guessing game

It's for another metal yes.

Would that be a rasp?

chizel? I have no idea lol

I've going to go along similar lines to Lepospondyl but say some type of knife sharpener. Although I don't believe it is. It's the only thing that I can think of now.

Trig · Dec 6, 2004

No not a rasp.

Another clue is, today, the item that the item in the macro image files against, ran out today, I need to buy some more tomorrow.

Pencil sharpener maybe?

Still clueless....

Ok, recap time.

Clue No.1 is : It's metal.
Clue No.2 is : It has a similiar purpose to a file.
Clue No.3 is : It's used on metal.
Clue No.4 is : It wares out what it files against and that then has to be replaced.

I can't think of anything. We're going to kick ourselves when we find out what it is aren't we?

Nope, I'm still confused. next clue please.

Is it a brake shoe? I thought they were fairly smooth, but some of the more agressive "sport" brakes are rough like this (well, not like this, but this is extreme macro world).

I was sitting outside smoking thinking what I would use as a macro when I saw it :lol:

Very, very well done Peldor! You got it!

I got to admit, it was a hard one, heres the full picture. I kinda like the pic as well, not enough DOF though

I just loved the light on the striker.
