Why not?
The container would be on top, not on bottom like shown.
The plunger is what sends the dust out. A little at a time.

Does it occur to anyone that when a person
repeatedly asks for information, the kind
thing to do is to provide the information?

What does that say about you bunch of cruel
and sarcastic information deniers? Did your
psychiatrist ever diagnose your as anal
retentive?

Sorry, but as always I'm lousy at these, and can't help with any of
those.

But surely 3230 is a bulk milk container, used for pouring into smaller
containers in the old days when milkmen didn't deliver one-quart glass
bottles? Watch me be wrong.

does not put answer in the subject line, now others have found the
answers. Why can you not?

3230 Milk transport jug

3231 Automatic brake adjustment lever that fits on the bottom between
the two brake shoes on the early to mid 70"s Chevrolet Vega and Monza,
Olds StafFire, Buick Skyhawk, and Pontiac Astre?

Can't tell you how many of these I have replaced. Replacement was
necessary as the unit would not collapse when installing new brake
shoes, it would only expand with each application of the parking brake
lever. Actually there was a tool to collapse the internal "one way"
piece but the tool was more expensive than the part and therefore more
time consuming.

I think it's for medicating small animals . I know what a problem I have
giving our dog her meds <monthly flea pill , aspirin for her aches> . Drop
pill in funnel , insert tube into mouth , pull plunger and follow the pill

It sounds like you're looking in the wrong place.

The images for the current puzzle are posted on a Web page. Clearly, while
the puzzle is live, the answers won't appear on that page. But the Web page
contains a link to the previous week's puzzle. If you navigate to that page,
you can find the answers about half-way down the page. It's not surprising
that it's half-way down, because each half contains the images, which
dominate the space taken up by the page. The top half is the images without
the answers, and the bottom half is the images with the answers.

I have never, ever, ever bothered to look for the answers before, let alone
look at them. But I found them within a few seconds of deciding to look.

If you are really, really struggling to find the answers, simply click in
your address bar (in your browser), and change the URL by adding "#answers"
as in the following example:

http://55tools.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/set-553.html

becomes

http://55tools.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/set-553.html#answers

Hit your "Enter" or "Return" key, and the browser will jump to the answers.

I hope that is helpful to you. I hope it solves a long-time mystery for you.
I hope it is now clear to you how to find the answers.

Coarse grained material or viscous fluid also possible.
Turn it so the tube is at an angle and the funnel is upright.
Leave rod in down position, remove funnel cap, fill funnel to level,
with the rod acting as a shut off valve, return funnel cover, raise rod
to allow contents of funnel to flow down tube.
Funnel acts as rough measure.

Check the angle on the filler funnel. You cannot use it more tilted up
than just a little above horizontal. If the 'hopper' is even halfway
filled, it will spill out at horizontal, and empty itself completely when
the tip is tilted above horizontal.

Roses (and most plants) need to be dusted on the bottoms of the leaves as
well as the tops.

Not that... It's designed to be used vertically.

Rob, I don't like it for a powder loader, by virtue of the fact that it
has no means to limit the amount of the charge. Powder piston loaders
almost all have a means to meter out a fixed amount of powder per stroke.

That one seems to just admit powder more-or-less endlessly, without any
particular method of stopping it. The tip would ram it, but what would
stop the powder remaining in the tube from just 'drizzling out' when it
was removed from the sprue it was intended to fill?

No... being a pyro person, I'm not happy with that being _anything_ to
load powder into _anything_.
(could be wrong, though. wouldn't be the first time!)

3230 Never saw a milk container without a lid. Maybe for fueling

3234 For giving medication to a small animal. The plunger is for a

You may not find a match, it was unique to the a few GM vehicles in the
70's maybe into the early 80's. I looked at a few nation auto parts
store online catalogs and while the description was named no part was
available. The part actually mounted just under the wheel cylinder.

3229, tamping tool for a Jack and the Beanstalk

3230 milk can from a dairy.
3231, no clue.
3232, maybe for some kind of flower?
3233, no clue.
3234, would make a good seed planter.

I had a typo in my description which I changed earlier, it's actually a five
gallon container. And after doing some searching, it looks like it was probably
used for something other than milk.

I haven't found an exact match yet on the web but did find some similar shaped

I think this is probably correct, the closest that I could find online are the
cans on this page:

I'll take yours and Leon's word on this one.


>3234 - bolus tool?


Sounds possible, I'm still not sure about this item.

3232 - I'd _guess_ some sort of fruit pitting tool - perhaps peaches,
plums/prunes, or the like. I think it's too small for Avacados.

Changed a bunch of them myself. They "worked" but getting them to
retract when they rusted was almost impossible.

Here is a mitchell page showing them.

Yeah, I kind of agree with this comment, I don't think it's for milk.

Long, long, long time ago an aunt had a dairy farm up in Wisconsin and
besides a lid (needed to keep the flies out), the handle for them were on
either side of the opening, two, not one across like the one in the picture.

Thanks! That really nails this one down, I'll send your link to the owner.

Tell the owner of 3231 that if they have no use for it (or any others
they have or Vega parts in general) to go to http://forums.h-body.org/
and mention that they have them.

They are VERY RARE parts and are wanted by folks who restore the cars.

Ok, I'll definitely mention this to him, I'm almost certain he doesn't have a
use
for it.

Text on it reads "PAT. JUNE. 24 .29", but that's not a Tuesday, so either it's
an incorrect date or not a U.S. patent. One of my friends did some research and
reported: "That date was a valid patent date for Greece, England, Germany,
France and Denmark. There were 262 patents issued on that date in those
countries combined, and I looked at those from England with no obvious hits."

The end of the plunger is tapered, a photo of it can be seen here:

I agree that it's unlikely to be a powder loader, looks like this one will
remain
unsolved for a while.

I just had a look and found them in about 20 seconds.

For future reference they are always half way down the same page (or just
