John Morris Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 "What's It" Basic Rules Reminder (For a full run down on this project and rules please go to: "The Patriot Woodworker and MWTCA "What's It" project") Only Patriot Woodworker Members are eligible to participate and receive the award. The MWTCA only accepts a verified source to support your answer, so one should be submitted with your answer, such as a patent, catalog entry, tool book reference, or a respectable website on the subject. Do not let these requirements prevent you from having fun and submitting educated answers on the subject without verification, we can worry about references later. All answers are welcome, as well as healthy debates regarding "What's It". If a verified and referenced answer is not arrived at by the end of each month's "What's It" project, a random draw will be performed for a "One Year MWTCA Club Membership". Only Patriot Woodworker's who participate in this "What's It" topic will be included in the random draw. Ok ladies and gentlemen, we now have our September "What's it" live and ready! The image(s) below is a MWTCA "What's It" image for you to research, and tell us all here in this topic post, just what the heck is it! Project details The information provided hereon is all the information that is provided, no further information on this item will be added. Remember, "What's It" is not always woodworking related!

ChuckJ Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) Looks like a big pencil sharpener. Tool for rounding off the end of dowels. Maybe for pegs in old furniture joinery or construction.

HandyDan Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 It's a brake shoe hold down spring washer tool. Someone modified it to fit behind an axle flange that was in the way of going straight in. I did one for a forklift one time but don't have it now.
