Any VST with everyday object sound effects?

Reaktor Prism, Omnisphere, Cromaphone, and if you have Kontakt stop by 8dio and Soundiron's website.
The Elements Instrument from http://zapzorn.com/ also looks and sounds amazing and I believe it can be used with the free Kontakt Player. But, I would get assurance of that first

Who is "I"? What is "I"? This has yet to be explained.

Xoxos has a loads of interesting plugs you might want to check out. Plugs that simulate things like machine noise, water, thunder, various membranes...
Other than that, you might want to go down the sample library route rather than looking at plugins. Unless you're looking to do a lot of modulation requiring the unparalleled flexibility that synthesis provides, the real thing will almost always sound better than the synthesised equivalent. There's still a little room for modification with sampler techniques too.

There's the Serafine FXTron from Sonic Reality. It's got a subfolder called "domestic" that's got household sound effects, plus sound design staples like machines, weapons, animals, sci fi elements and ambiences. There's lots of synth style editing tools to help you take the factory content to some VERY cool places.
It runs inside Kontakt as an Infinite Player library, but works without demo mode limitations in Kontakt Player too.
I've got the SE version, and as a sometime sound designer, it's amazingly easy to start with something like a garbage disposal, and end up ten minutes later with a giant space ship starting. Just having the fx playable from a keyboard makes spot scoring MUCH easier.
The SE version is on sale now for $49 (!!!) at esoundz.com, 75% off MSRP. The bigger versions are on sale too if you like what you hear. Here's a link to SE, click the "more info" tab to get into the details:

"Included is the Klang core library (326MB compressed) - 750MB uncompressed of klangs, hits, strikes, stingers and more. We went to various locations and hit, struck and

literally beat the CRAP out of all kinds of metallic containers, barrels, dumpsters, ethnic drums, industrial machinery, stairwells, metal banisters and anything else made out of metal, steel and brass.
Also included are tons of new dry samples of bass drums, snares, toms, cymbals, side sticks and more - sampled from a gorgeous 12-piece Tama acoustic drum set and extra typical and rare cymbals, crashes, rides, gongs, etc. - plenty of bread and butter samples to allow you to create any kind of percussion tracks you wish."
There may still be a free sounfont called 'Indastria'
from Pettinhouse. Might have to dig some at their website.
edit: looks like those are no longer on the page

Fresh out is Julien Tauban's Home Impacts. The patches are for Kontakt but you get the WAVs too. His samples are always very nicely recorded. There's a long list of what's included if you follow the link.

Yep. Klang is EXACTLY what you described as needed (thanks Glokraw).
The new Supersynths Player version works on Mac and PC, 32 bit and 64 bit.
The expansion can be used with ANYTHING (Soundfont, Kontakt, Wave and Wusik).

from thread title i was thinking spacedad (eg. rubber band instruments).
will add "friction" as a specific reference if you're inclined towards taking time to model incidental sounds.
a decade or so ago my pa found a 10 cd sfx set in a thrift store for multimedia production.. way before people learned to sell samples to computer musicians, people were building sfx libraries. cheaper, if you can find them
recommend recording your own too.

Hmm, iZotope Iris is based on exactly this idea, giving you a moderately-featured sampler that uses up to three waveforms (up to 1minute each) for creating sounds. Then it lets you use spectral editing with visual feedback and a harmonic detection algorithm to select/mask various parts of each waveform.
CRAZY sounds can come from this, you can resynthesize instruments you hear in other recordings, and you can create unique sounds from just about anything. They also have a lot of libraries with it, and you can find the bundle with all of it together for a decent bit less than MSRP if you look around.
Not as cheap as some of the alternatives mentioned, but Chromaphone? That's a synth, every sound from it is created algorithmically. If you want real-world object samples Iris is probably one of the most powerful options IMHO

Just so that it gets mentioned here amongst these fab suggestions:
there's nothing like going out there with a portable recorder and using your own sounds. It's incredibly satisfying, and I'm sure your music will be the better for it. Especially regarding the sounds you're looking for - they're easily accessible, and, with a little imagination and creative processing, you'll be able to cover a lot of ground...
...unless a looming deadline is sticking a red-hot fork in your rear, that is. In which case, I'd recommend perusing the Soundiron stuff if you have Kontakt, great quality, great scripting.

It would also help to know what the intended use for these sounds is. Whether the OP needs these sounds for SFX or in a musical context. Can make a significant difference in the suggestions me thinks.

I would say about 80% of all Reaktor ensembles uploaded in Native Instruments user library sound like that, but I could be wrongchucker wrote:Sounds like metal pipes clanking, ect. Can anybody point me in the right direction?
And of course there is Aalto, which solo version can be had for nought from Beat Drive.

http://rocksuresoundz.com/store/free-sound-effects/ they may have some stuff visit the other sub forums in KVR for samples.
Also proteus vx has a lot of special fx sounds in its percussion samples seems like I remember hearing all kinds of things in the perc section of presets on that one.
