Got an antique today, any guesses on what it is?


Pulp, SASS#28319

It's actually a cork boring tool, use to bore various sized holes through cork stoppers. I'm gonna use it for cutting wadding for cap and ball revolvers, .410 wadding, maybe 20 gauge, I haven't measured the largest bit yet.

 

We were cleaning out some old storage cabinets in the lab when I found it. I asked the boss if I could keep it, he said "Sure, it's obvious it's never been used here." It was either I take it home, or it found a home in the landfill.

Have seen a lot of old scientific instruments in my day but thats a first for me. Give ya 5 bucks for it! ;) I might even give 50 if you get really tired of it.

 

I appreciate the offer, but I think I'll hang onto it for a while. At least long enough to see if it works for my use.
