Re: Do You Remember These?
When putting up some thing up like a clothes line and my grand dad would thread the smooth wire through the hole drilled in the cross pipe top one of my uncles used this to clamp onto the smooth wire line ...there's a groove in that plate that the top bar will apply pressure to when the two finger trips are pulled together. Thumb fits in the left one and pointy finger goes in the other right one; while some holds the wire firmly the other person has time to cut the wire and tie it off without losing the tension. Pretty cool tool. Who's next?4EVER2 wrote:**BUMPED** what is this ...what they're trying to solve now!4EVER2 wrote:

My OH thinks it may be something to do with sea fishing.
Or my guess something to hold a branding iron with.

Boot Jack ...used one every day when growing up; best method for pulling off our boots without having to ask a sibling to grab ahold of a manured covered heel.

Still use mine. Only it's wood...a cast iron one might scar the boots.

one in the barn and one on the back porch

This was what we had all around the house for all of our boots >

Made in our High School Wood working Shop Classes or 4-H
classes - given as gifts to friends and family members. Notice
how the support brace is higher then the English style; the
western boot heel is much taller then the English riding boot.

I went out and mowed ALL of my area - mowed for a handicapped lady, pulled some weeds and just came in - heated up some late lunch and now I'm ready for the answer.
