L'Umbracle

The Umbracle is a covered walkway and garden next to the Turia River in Valencia, Spain. Visitors can stroll under 54 arches 18 meters high and through carefully selected plants:

Planted with native species, palms, orange trees, rock roses, mastic trees, rosemary, bougainvillea, that change shape and colour with every season, create different ambiences over the course of the walk. Inside the structure is an outdoor art gallery, called the ‘Stroll of the Sculptures’ with nine sculptures from contemporary authors.

We call those a "Come-a-Long". It's for stretching the wire when constructing a barbed wire fence. You lay out your wire and then when you get to the last post you hook it up to that thing. Then you ratchet it tight, wrap the loose end around the post and nail it tight. After it's secure, you release the ratchet and attach the wire to all the smaller posts down the line. Repeat for the next strand.

It's a medieval back scratcher. It was really useful for knights who needed to scratch their backs while in full armor.

This is what enterprising blacksmiths gave their kids to play with in the good ol' frontier days. Instead of rolling a hoop with a stick, the kids would push this puppy around the yard. Served a dual purpose as a lawn aerator without the kids even knowing it.

Megatron's pocket knife takes the form of a buzzsaw, which he uses to open up small items like cars. This old rusty one was lost in battle. Peace through tyranny!
