History anybody seen one of these and what it is??

Pummel horse?

 

pkhammer is right, clothes washer......

 

I think pkhammer has it right. The one pictured in lower center is very similar in construction. Picture is from Museum of Clean in Pocatello, Idaho.

 

Dang, who knew!.They even have a museum for clean!

 

Her name is Dagmar. She was the model for 50's Cadillac bumpers.

Do I win anything?

 

HAMBers are 72% more likely to buy shit they don't understand than the average civilian.

Think I read that somewhere.....

 

Just our admiration for knowing more useless stuff than the rest of us.

 

Just bragging rights. I believe you’re correct. Awfully large for washing clothes though.

Could work for a crop circle maker.

 

Obviously a turn of the century 'Henway'!

 

Yeah you are right. I read that on the HAMB....

 

I have not seen one of those for 60 years. My grandmother had one in an oval bucket to wash blankets and heavy duty stuff. She had a Maytag gas washer for the light clothes.

 

Actually that's June Wilkinson.

Never seen June's head from side view before. Wrong hairdo...

 

Naw, it's a horse shit masher to break up the clumps.

 

Leavarite....as in leave it right there

 

This reminds me, I need to post a pic on a what is it thread. It has 3 trailer hitch balls spaced out(3 feet between them) on a bumper. The only thing I can think of, it`s for a one wheeled trailer using the outer two mounts.

 

I've never heard of anyone having three balls.

Don't just stand there, say something!

 

The wash boiler was designed this way to fit over two burners of a wood stove back in the day. There was a lid that fit it while boiling. That two funnel plunger would fit nicely in one of these. Bob

 

Well there's 2 pages of my life I'll never get back..................................................

 

I was going to say a stand for working on motorcycles, but I obviously have no idea of what I'd be talking about.

My Uncle Jim would call it an asshole for a hobby horse

 

I always thought it was “Wig wam for a gooses bridle” but whatever it sure is a conversation starter.

 

Thats the difference folks between an Aussie & a Kiwi. See, I don’t sound like a Kiwi at all

 

So, do you want to double your money?
