My first guess for saw horse was trestle. You would put a board on the top to make a table.

That one does seem a bit vague given the lack of scale or context.

Is sawhorse an American thing? I am suprised that it is the lowest one. I would think it would be one of the highest.

Not American, but still call it sawhorse. I'm guessing not that many people have one for DIY stuff.

AmyD85, Karabiner is the German word for carbine, so it is indeed a rifle. e.g. the Mauser K98k, or Karabiner 98 kurz (carbine 98 short).
+1
Level 73
May 13, 2018
Tried every possible spelling of nunchaku except the right one. And I'm sure the correct spelling should be carabinier?

Level 74
May 13, 2018
You maybe thinking of the word "carabinieri" who are part of the Italian armed forces.

My husband discovered this week that his stethoscope also works well as a stud finder - he tapped on the wall and was easily able to discern where the studs were. But I'm guessing stud finder wouldn't be accepted. :)

"Stud Finder" sounds like a raunchy dating app.

Level 89
Apr 15, 2019
Nope, Karabiner is the Mauser rifle the Germans used in World War 2, a shortened version (carbine) of the rifle they used in WW1. Many other countries in Europe and around the world used it and almost all modern bolt action rifles, that is hunting guns, are based directly on it.

Carabiner is definitely also spelt karabiner in the climbing world. From a German word describing a hook used to connect a rifle to a strap.
+1
Level 64
May 14, 2018
Maybe accept the misspelled "pummel horse"?

Also, 'round my parts we've always called megaphones "blowhorns".

+1
Level 66
Jul 4, 2018
Seconded. With all the other accepted misspellings, "pummel" for "pommel" seems appropriate/consistent.

That's how everyone pronounces it. Seems fair.

The brass knuckles were like an optical illusion to me. I could only see the wood as an object, the rest was empty space. Not until I saw the answer did the brass knuckles suddenly appear!

I think it's kind of funny that the Pommel Horse is one of the least known objects. I guess not many people are fans of men's gymnastics, I mean, I'm more of a women's gymnastics fan, (since I am one) but I still know all of the men's apparatuses.
