I know what the device is in the first pic but the name slips my mind. The device in the second pic is a foot rest for shaving your legs and the cork is to fill it up in the bath so it doesn't float away.

Lets be specific here I don't shave my legs. Yours covers everyone but you were right it stated on the top lady shaving foot rest BTW it was sealed to the corner and could not float away.

I am still waiting for the correct answer to the first two pics. Will be taking the wife to Texas Road House for Steak Hope I have the answer by the time I return. Come on guys get it on its Friday

It's a solenoid and you are checking the operation of it by holding the the metallic screwdriver near it to sense the magnetic field. What it's for...I don't know.

That I was, is as mister Larson described when he was two years old his dad taught him about that That is the easy way since most solenoids have the wires enclosed it is easier to use a screwdriver to see if it is engerized. (Magnetic Field)

Sure Mikie L you can play what is that other device but stay off of Google
