Simon, why not take the broken ginger beer, attach a branch or perch next to the opening and turn it into a bird feeder? Speaking of a perch, perhaps the wood-looking mystery piece is a trained bird's perch. Those little ridges on both sides would give the bird a place to grasp on with their claws.

Love cats. Read a recent article that advised putting their crunchies on a rimmed plate rather than a bowl to avoid, “whisker fatigue.” Their whiskers are very sensitive and they don’t prefer stimulate them squishing the sides of a bowl while they eat. I know, I know…it’s an annoying bit of knowledge….but I swear it’s true. They do prefer a saucer. Great hunt…loved the odd hammer. It is amazing you found out what it is. I was going for nut cracker.

As a sailing ship enthusiast I reckon a better suggestion would be a Victorian shipwrights caulking mallet which is used to push old rope between planking and deck boards. It would be used to hit a caulking iron (a bit like a bolster chisel). Most ships and boats would carry them .

I didn't go through all the comments and hopefully someone else has mentioned this earlier: the beautiful bowl you found probably has a fairly high percentage of lead in the glazing. This was a common practice, as I'm sure you know, until the '50s and '60s. You might want to reconsider feeding Nellie from it and relegate it to holding flowers. I love your program.

@paulkinzer7661 2 года назад

The whimsical nature of the carved antler makes me think the 'hammer' was something as much decorative as useful; maybe just completely decorative. The effort and time needed to makes those grooves just gives me that vibe. So, cheese corer makes more sense to me than any kind of tool meant for rough, repeated use.

@Sifinds 2 года назад

Cheers Paul 👍🏻🐾🧡

@ritamahlberg8602 2 года назад

I am with you about cheese scorer. The hammer is to proof the sound and the other end ist to make a hole to get a sample?

@Commandamanda 2 года назад

I think it's a walnut hammer, and the other end had a pick screwed in there. Smash the nut, pick out the meat. Aaaaaannddd for my next guess, a tap hole borer, for a barrel - first you start the hole in the barrel (there was a drill on the other end and you would twisty twisty in the wood), then you hammer the tap in. Since it's so elaborate (with the owner's initial), I'd say whoever owned it was rather higher status. What do you think of my guesses?! Wishing you continued luck in the muck!

Just a little heads up about Nellie’s “new bowl”. A bowl that steep and narrow could cause Whisker Fatigue. Use it sparingly so it doesn’t overstimulate your sweet boy.

@rogerdinnis3816 2 года назад

Another idea for the mystery object. The detected metal might be where the long piece is screwed into the short handle to make it strong. With no obvious wear it must have been used carefully. My thought is that due to its size it is an elaborate victorian boot hook, minus the hook.

You had some great finds. The object you was not sure about, some people seem sure it's Japanese. The markings on the end might not be letters but actual writing in Japanese. Probably if it was for sword making. When they got down to the fine detail they would probably use it with different attachments on the end & a very soft hammer with a little bit of weight. Like a multi tool. Mr Miyagi would know.

The Mekuginuki is a tool used to take off the menuki from a Iaito / Shinken tsuka. Made of brass, a ductile material, it will show some traces of use when shocked with a harder material. How to use: Unscrew the short pin on top of the Mekuginuki, then place the bigger end of the pin on top of the Mekugi and hammer gently. When the Menuki is partially removed, turn the pin and finish the job. Please make sure you have some spare mekugi before using, as you must not reuse a damaged mekugi, even on a Iaito.
