Nah... it's an oil can pitcher. Drop in a can, push the lid shut to contain AND open the can, then pour.

Replaced in the US with the "oil spout".

1603 It's a "medical device" early 20th century, delivers a mild electrical shock through the roller. Should be a ground wire with it somewhere. There was a lot of this stuff around when electricity was new and mysterious.

1604 Track chain drive sprockets from something. Probably a crawler type tractor, could be from a track drill or something else that used tracks.

1606 Wood splitter. The insert pieces cam out to push the wood apart.

Is it a shamplaza?

1605 is *NOT* for oil. Look at the dimension: 5 1/2" tall. It's for beer.

*I* was going to say that. The preacher bought me one. He didn't want us drinking from cans during sermons because it would look like a commercial endorsement.

The flip tab made it obsolete. Now we wear hats with two cans and sipping tubes. No more trying to hold a hymnal with one hand.

I don't know what that is, I did a quick search on it and didn't find much, so I can't say for sure but I don't think that's correct. Leo got it right, it's for beer, and it made the pull tab obsolete, as mentioned by E Z. The product name is Tapster, by Revere Co.

They work Ok on wood that is fairly easy to split. But if there is a big knot in there or some twisted grain, it is like hitting a big rock. The vibration and shock travels down the handle into your arms and hurts.
