Whats-it game
« on: February 13, 2012, 08:59:39 AM »
Hey all,
Was feeling left out so I needed to throw a tool into the mix !
This will be easy some I'm sure, so if you know it- hold off till there are a few guesses?
Ignore the rust... I left it on a piece of wood & need to clean it off...

Something to do with livestock?  Tagging, branding, or banding something to fall off later?

Could get interesting if the wives learn there is a tool for their favorite fantasy. I don't want one of those in my nose.

Too easy I guess. I'll have to dig around for something harder.

Brian- I'll take a few tonight or tomorrow and put it up in the blacksmithing section. That one is my Hay Budden... Little dusty

Once applied, a continuous firm grip is required.

memory isn't as good as was! I think my grandfather used one as a nose twitch when they worked on the cows. The bull had a ring in his nose for control. Cows and horses can be worked on when a twitch is used- don't know why it worked. Didn't work on my kids! LOL

The animal learns real quick about the pain a twitch can inflict!   Horses being gelded don't even suspect what is going on in the groin when a chain twitch is properly applied to the nose!

The things I learn here.  I look forward to finding one of these as I'm plowing the land.  I've already cached 3 wood splitters, 4 hammers, 7 hillers, 4 various size metal rings???, several horse shoes, and more clay bricks that I care to admit.  I think I've found where an old barn was on the property.

Once applied, a continuous firm grip is required.

I told my wife the same early in our marriage, and she took me at my word.

Ouchy - No, but I got a 6' piece of 7/8 sucker rod with my 5' PTO tiller at 720RPM - I had to cut the new sucker rod SPRING out in 4-5" pieces.  I've been trying to use the sub-soiler more before putting PTO tiller into dirt :)
