Over the years, Tim has acquired a number of objects that he now is unsure what they are or what they do. He sometimes calls an unknown object a WIF - or What's It For?
Tim is looking forward to hearing from you, the KZfaq audience, to make suggestions, or maybe actually tell him what these objects are really for.
However Tim starts with a strange object - a green plastic tube with holes along its length, and a strip of foam inside it. Tim gives a clue - you place it in water for about 20 seconds, and it is then ready for use. At the end of the video, he reveals what this unusual object is used for. Can you guess?

It's a normal paper staple remover, I've had one for years. Mine is yellow. They work really well. You can still buy them, they're called "scissor style staple removers". The surgical ones are similar though.

The red and black item may be a stack seperator. You hook it on the edge of a surface so the stack sits just on the small flat part. Then when you need to pick up the stack, you push the red piece in and it makes a centimeter gap to get your fingers under. I can imagine using it for tiles or other heavy items that are stored in stacks

Back in the 70’s there was a baby bottle system that used a bag as the bottle and it was placed in a plastic bottle shaped tube and the last device was used to “install” the bag in the tube. The idea was the bag was flexible and would collapse as the baby drank and that was supposed to reduce the amount of gas in the babies stomach.

This one looks more like you put the black lip on a table etc., and push the red bit into a stack to do the same thing.

I recognised the humidifier immediately. had one similar (but smaller) for my violin while growing up. The air can be quite dry in Australia and you wouldn't want the instrument to crack. The green item at 3:00 is indeed a staple remover. You stick the metal triangle under the flat part of the staple and press shut like a pair of scissors, the staple will open. you are correct in that the plastic handle holding the triangle gets weaker over time and eventually wears out making it unable to remove staples effectively.

So funny to see my everyday important tool appear on this channel. I remember well my bass teacher introducing me to that in 1979. They’re long lasting. I only had to renew it once I the past 40+ years. I’ve been using it religiously to keep my bass at the right humidity. Most important as my bass is more than 175 years old and I don’t want to be the owner who neglects this beautiful instrument. I had no idea it was something so easily found in my home town Amsterdam (I know exactly in which shop Tim must have purchased it) as I thought it would be common everywhere over the world. Maybe not then. 😂

Those two steel balls, which swivel to open some slots, remind me a lot of those balls you insert in the washing machine to capture the dye that leaks out from certain clothes while being washed at high temperatures. The cotton ball seems like a hint to its purpose, as it would absorb most of the dye by capillary action. Either that or it's used to dose a solid detergent to be used in the washing machine.

the green tube with holes in it is a stringed instrument humidifier. this particular one seems to be sized for maybe a bass or cello. you soak it in water and shake it off so it isn't dripping wet and then you slip it into the f-hole of the stringed instrument. there it will slowly release moisture and keep the wood from splitting and cracking in very dry environments.

4:30 looks like a part of packaging. Round would mount to the main item and the orange clip would secure an accessory item. Like bells or tassles for a bike. Extra pieces for a stroller. Etc.

6:10 My best guess is, it's a pressure regulating bottle stopper. I imagine the press and spread feature, is a fastening/locking mechanism. Plunger materials tells me for sealing purposes. I'd assume this lid purges gases that build up, or will not open unless correct pressure conditions are present. Aka, I can't drop my meter down the check port, bc the system is pressured. Purge pressure, the lid can be removed. My best guess

the silver balls are sneaker fresheners. Ive seen them sold at Walmart forever ago. You twist them closed while you wear the sneakers. Then Open them up and put them in your shoes when you are done. White bulb thing seems to be an egg yolk separator. It seems the red and black bit is part of an e-stop or interlock switch.

Im sure its been said 100 times already, however ill identify it again. The two balls with the slots and cotton balls are "SHOE DEODORANT BALLS". Basically they have a scent originally and also help remove moisture im sure, from your shoes. When you say, arrive home qnd kick off your shoes. You toss one ball in each to keep the funk away. Also meant for reducing gym locker and closet shoe funk transferring to everything else. We had those ones and a few others that were all white and white with blue vents. Pretty popular infomercial stuff in the 90's.

For the orange wedge with the black receptacle, try turning the wedge part around. Place it against drywall, or cardboard and hammer the flat end of the wedge. It'll make a nice rectangular hole. I have no idea what it's really for.

2nd one is a shoe deodorizer. The cotton inside holds a fragrance and possibly desiccant. There is two, one for each shoe. You rotate them to open the windows around the rims to adjust the amount of fragrance. 3rd, don't know. 4th is a surgical staple remover. It bends the ends up and out. 5th, don't know. 6th is for separating egg yolks. 7th is a Playtex bottle expander.

The green scissors is a paper joiner. It is like a staple without the metal clip, it is used when you have to put a small group of paper together like a letter written in that thin paper used for air mail. Just clip the corner of the papers and the hole will keep them together.

I believe that I’ve seen the two silver ball things before. They look like something that i had as an air freshener for your shoes. When you are done with your shoes, you can twist them to open the scent and throw them in your shoes.

The silver shifting balls with the smaller balls within are air fresheners for boots and shoes! I used to have mutliple I'd drop into my roller skates after sessions. They're not supposed to come apart, so Tim must have used a good amount of force to get them open, haha.

I think the little silver balls that come apart are to put fragrance in on the cotton ball. You can use them in drawers, shoes or where ever you would like. The green hose reminds of an old type of enema tube used for a colon cleanse. I’m sure that’s not right just a wild guess

The silver balls are fresheners, probably for shoes, as there are two of them. You put your perfume of choice on the cotton ball inside and open it to allow the fragrance out. And the white bulb with the clear plastic end if for separating eggs. You simply suck up the yoke and leave the white behind.
