bankruatsteve Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) I'm pretty sure I've seen these at Home Pro, Global, etc. - but now I can't find and my artistry leaves the help baffled. What I'm looking for are the fast connect thingies that you just squeeze to open and then to connect something. I just need to know what these are called so I can Google a photo that I can then copy and show somebody what I want.

richard_smith237 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) isn't it one of those 'whatchamacallits' ? .... You can find table tennis and baseball bats in the sports stores... To be of more help: In the past when I've hit a translation / artistry brick wall I've performed a 'google image' search on my phone... When in the shop ask "Have you got this?" then show them the photo... Edited April 19, 2015 by richard_smith237 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunBENQ Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) A picture puzzle. Nice diversion from forum boredom My first guess: A simple form of a "snap hook"? Trying hard to find it in Thai to no avail. Edited April 19, 2015 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankruatsteve Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 Thanks guys! Now, armed with a photo, I just need to find who sells them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCor Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I'd call them an Ice Cream Scoop and a Wisk. Mmmm, home-made ice cream. In my part of the world, the clips are call carabiner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_smith237 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 We have these to attach our curtain pull (pole) to the curtains... You might find them in such a section in HomePro or the like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCor Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 The simpler versions are also known as Spring Hooks Not to be confused with these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumiii Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 If these are what you are looking for, It is actually spelled " Carabiner". and is pronounced like" Care a beaner" Those made for rock climbing can withstand loads of 2000 pounds, but in recent decades they are available with much less strength as well...ones used as keychains, should only be used as keychains. Be sure to purchase ones suitable for your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
