MadDogMetalDetecting Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I found this while detecting a site where an old house used to stand until the late '50s early '60s. I have no idea on what it is. I believe it's an old school knife sharpener. Has a small pulley on the side. Any help or brainstorming would be great!

MadDogMetalDetecting Posted June 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Welcome! I find some really old interesting things around here. I found 2 old house sites that are now just level ground 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDogMetalDetecting Posted June 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 Update, the "roller" part is metal, I had thought it was stone cause it was so grainy and brittle. Could scrape it and it would "dust off" some grainy bits. Put magnet over the dust and it all stuck..... So strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalu Rash Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 I'm stumped. I hope you figure out what this is, I have a no clue at all. Interesting find, you must find cool stuff like this all the time. What is the most valuable thing you ever found? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atlas2000 Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Tried searching the web, but nothing came up. Looks like it has a small pulley on one side that would fit a belt like my grandmother's treadle sewing machine used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
