Fish kettle?

You're close but no cigar. Kev is right in that it's earthenware and connected with cooking but not any kind of cooking pot.

Roasting dish for meat?

To rest your soup spoon/ladle or other cooking utensil on?

A cream or fat skimmer?

Sorry, you are all so close! Clue; think about methods of cooking...

For collecting the 'dripping' from meat that is being roasted?

I would have liked you to say 'spit-roasted' China but I have to give it to you, yes, it's for catching the gravy from roasting meat and of course acted as a reservoir so that the meat could be basted.
Next one for shaving?

Tell me what this is for.....

Is it an attachment for sharpening cutting tools?

Sorry Gloria, no nothing to do with mechanicking. It is very obscure and I'll give a clue straight away. It's connected to medicine.

Pill making?

I’m with you Wendy.

Pill cutting?

Easy! It's an orange ruler...oh, sorry, I thought the other thing was put there just to show the size of the ruler. Well if the other thing is not for making pills what about pressing out something like stamps or tickets? Either putting a pattern of holes through (perfins) or raised marks (embossed).

Sorry no to all of you. I think this is impossible actually. Another big clue. It's an aid to monitoring progress in improving a congenital condition.

Another clue, it bends light gauge aluminium strips.

To make the basic framework for a dropped foot.

No Ken, more as a diagnostic tool. I shall knock it on the head at dinnertime, it's far too obscure.

For labelling?

For dealing with a cleft palate?

That's a clever suggestion, Gloria!

Bit of wild guessing Tizer.

Of course it might be something he threw together in a spare few moments in the shed just to tease us!

He’s not telling us is he?
