Seriously?

Yes. I'm not sure why.

Couldn't you go with apple, pizza, bicycle, broken watch, pen, or whatever sort of items whose names are known? It would perhaps be too ordinary, but your present choice really makes it harder.

Future posts will not re-use this example. I wanted to use lots of pictures for this one to make sure the steps were clear, and found it easier to motivate myself to do that with ponies.
