Excited Raichu's Riley Riddle, #2












7














Part 1 is here (not important to solving this one)




My prefix is an H bent outwards minus end three;



My infix weighs fourteen pounds, minus the letters in me;



My suffix is an uncle's brother's grandsons, minus the first one;



All together, I'm in machines, but don't get me stuck to you when you're done.




P.S. (not really a hint but still)




You can assume the uncle in question has only one brother.

          My prefix is an H bent outwards minus end three;




          I'm not sure about this one, but I think the first two letters are right...

          pivot (- last 3 letters) = PI




          My infix weighs fourteen pounds, minus the letters in me;




          stone (-m -e) = STON




          My suffix is an uncle's brother's grandsons, minus the first one;




          sons (- first letter) = ONS
