Precise granite square?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Posted: 22 Aug 2024, 08:26
Exactly Kev. Precise because it is so stable, negligible contraction or expansion with a change of temperature, unlike a metal one.....
Can you tell me what this is?

None of the above!
Sorry, there isn't much information with it. It's very hard and only two inches long and has a different grade on each side, fine on one side and even finer on the other.

Is it a whetstone?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

You are both on the right track, you've got the material right, a very fine carborundum.
Now tell me what such a small fine stone was used for in the mill. There was only one purpose.....

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

For sharpening chisels?
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Posted: 24 Aug 2024, 02:43
Sorry no. It's obviously too difficult.... If it is still unsolved later this morning I shall reveal all. Think of the different aspects of producing cotton cloth. One trade used these small fine abrasive stones.....
