Hello from Hazard!
We haven’t heard anything yet on Item No. 1238, so we will move on to another item.
Tom Lang, of Big Prairie, Ohio, submitted the item.
Lacy Gagliardi and Skip LaFollette III submitted Item No. 1239. They are having a difficult time identifying a few of Skip’s grandfather’s tools.
Do you know what the item is or how the item is used? Let us know by emailing us at editorial@farmanddairy.com; or by mail to: Hazard a Guess, c/o Farm and Dairy, P.O. Box 38, Salem, OH 44460.
Try looking the items up by the patent number. There is I believe a website that you can do that. Was going to try and look up the one item but just could not quite read he number in the picture. Paul
Item 1239 seems to be a handheld bolt extractor. You clamp it around the bolt, adjust the ring in the middle to tighten it with the rectangular piece of metal pressing against the bolt, then twist with the wooden handle to loosen it.
