So i got this "bell work". And i have NO IDEA how to solve it.
I looked up almost all the items, and i still dont know
its like my teacher just thought of any random thing =P
AFter loooong researching, i thought i could ask you fellow soompierss
Help will be appreciated ^___^


The following is a list of items. All of these items are connected in some way.
You have to explain what the common element is, and explain why for each.(i dont need the explaining part)
Example: rubber ducky, fire hydrant, fireman's raincoat, etc. Answer: common element is "yellow" and you would explain why these items are yellow.

The list of items are:

1)pocket knife
2)Winnebago
3)ipod
4)folding chair
5)PDA
6)wrist watch
7)medieval christian icons
8)mess kit
9)netsuke
10)electric generator
11)bento
12)miniature portraits
13)photo booth
14)Paleolithic Venus figures
15)Zuni Fetishes
16)Chinese scroll paintings
17)puppet theater
18)cosmetic compact
19)defibrillator
20)amulet
21)Underwood 255
22)milagros
23)baby pacifier
24)Sanitoi
25)flashlight

//edit//
Our teacher said the common element was they are all portable.

Carbon was the first thing I thought of too!

I don't know what some of those things are, but they are all manmade. I don't see anything natural, like tree or rock or something.
