探 = 扌 + 冖 + 八 + 木 : Tecumseh (t) lost an eight-ball (八) during the last billiard game and goes scouting (探) to find it. Eventually he arrives at the anthill's bathroom (an4) and looks under a big Christmas tree (木). He lifts a cooking top (冖) with a toy claw (扌) and finally finds the eight-ball under it.

探 = 扌 + 罙 : Tecumseh (t) is exploring (探) the chimney of a kitchen range (罙) in the anthill's bathroom (an4). He uses two toy claws (扌) to climb inside of it from bottom to top.

幽 = 𢆶 + 山 : Maud Younger (y) is preparing for bad times in front of the outhouse (ou1). With a fork (山) she hides two aces (𢆶) in secluded and remote (幽) spaces: she lifts the glass pyramid with the fork and shoves one card under it, and the other one she puts right on top of the glass pyramid.

微 = 彳 + 山 + 一 + 几 + 攵 : Mnemonic symbol: a microscope.

Willy Walrus set up his microscope on a small table in front of the Eiffel Tower. He is investigating a very interesting crystal: the crystal looks like a big flute, and when he chips off pieces with a sledgehammer they also look like little flutes. He stores the chips in a black sneaker and to put them under the microscope he uses a fork.
