Good teaser! Oh, dutchy, can I borrow your helicopter to take a short trip to Hawaii? Promise I'll bring it back in one piece. (It does come with an operation manual - right?)
Great Teaser!
I didn't take the time to figure it out, but I still thought it was pretty good!
Very good teaser duchy, keep them coming!
oo oo! froggy and dutchy can I take a ride with you in the helicopter! I ll drive..er ..fly!
Good teaser. I knew it was helpicopter even though Ozzy and another had me stumped.

Good quiz!!
Nice teaser. Not too hard, not too easy. Made me have to think. That's the idea, right?
Interesting,but on the easy side for me.
fine teaser but very easy. i had helicopter after the first three clues.
Good teaser, however: I put PLANT for bulb, HATCHET for axe and YARD for park so I didn't get it.
Had a few answers wrong, but it became obvious and I just looked for alternative answers, and Voila ! Thanks for a good one.
Nice teaser - well written!
Nice one. I didn't get all the words, but I figured out it was helicopter.
Thanks.
Thanks.
That was a good one!!!!
I had several of the 10 right and thought it was helicopter, but I couldn't get my words to fit proberly. That was a delight. Thanks for the great teaser.

excellent teaser, though a bit easy for me... like to see some more of these in the near future
Got the word, but Chopper for Ax is bizarre (I had Hatchet). Also had Playground instead of Park.
I got it by the sixth clue.
good job on a good teaser.

A lot of the clues could have had different answers (like light and plants come from a bulb), but you have to use your head to decide which one is going to fit in the answer.
Very nice teaser (I thought), but still found it a little easy (But would probably not have bothered if it was much more difficult).

Good one. I got heli and then looked at the last word, got the r and knew it. All these years of crosswords finally paid off
That's a cool teaser!
About "Black Sabbath front man"....I'm reading The Crucible right now....so the Black Sabbath part led me to think of Lucifer (aka the Devil), since he's the source of all evil or something like that, according to Puritan beliefs...
Well, I never would have gotten the whole teaser anyways...but it was fun to attempt on my behalf!

Excellent! Finally a teaser that I had to work at a little!!
#7 could be "playground," and #8 could be "tun," y'all. Not a particularly well-constructed puzzle.
I have to agree with lukasiwicz Too many possibilities.
There were a lot of possible answers for some of them, but you have to figure out the proper series of answers to solve it
I had 3 possible answers for #3 (light, tulip, and flower) but after solving 4 as Igloo, the final answer was obvious (to me anyway).
BTW - park and playground both start with the same letter so that would not affect the overall point of the puzzle.

I completely misunderstood the directions, and took them to mean that you're supposed to take the first letter of each hint and form a ten letter word that answers the hint. Example, the first hint starts with P, so the answer is Pleasantry. Also, for 7, the answer is Wonderland.
Yeah not the best teaser. But not bad. And, I have heard of many things called "choppers" (helicopters, motorcycles, guns, teeth), but never an ax.
Thanks Jaycr for helping me out on yesterdays teaser. Nice of you!
My first mistake was hatchet, not chopper. And I didn't have a clue about Black Sabbath. It was down hill from there! Clever puzzle though - thanks for posting!
I did not follow those rules right at all. I was trying to think of 10 letter words to answer all of them! Not cool.
I could see it was Helicopter, but too many possibilities?
I'm with lukasiwicz on this one, poorly constructed!
