Each trio of short words below represents a familiar, longer word. To reconstruct each long word, first drop the extraneous letter from one short word, without re-arranging the remaining letters. (The result may or may not be a word, and may be a single letter). Then switch the positions of two of the resulting trio members, and, finally, eliminate the spaces.

For example, given the clue words NET NAME TOUR, cross out the E in NET, switch TOUR and NAME, then bring the three parts together to reveal TOURNAMENT. If the clue words were GET VET ABLE, you would cross out the T in VET, switch GET and VE, then eliminate the spaces to form VEGETABLE.
