Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
I remembered seeing a group picture of men who were all wearing this tool so I've searched the site and have found it, though it took a bit of effort!
It is a warp twisters tool.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Yes Wendy, well remembered. The photo was supposed to have been done by William Bracewell and they were twisters at Butts.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
You're getting far too good at this Gloria! Yes, it's the business end of my tool and cutter grinder.... Gnashes teeth and retreats into a corner while someone finds another object.....
