    I acquired this, welded, hand made dipper or pitcher. Looks like Aluminum but is heavier than that… identifying number TAM 119476 BC
    I have had no success trying to look it up.
    11 1/8” long, 2 1/4 high, 3 1/4 diameter, not including the spout… help! I’m very curious about it. It came from the cellar of a 200 year old house in Limington Maine

      If it wasn't for the numbers/letters stamped into it, I would have guessed it was something someone made at home for a specific purpose that might, or might not, be guessable. With the inscription, however, I have not even a guess. Though probably not for pouring something hot or molten like lead for bullets. It might be a prototype for something.

      I’ve concluded it was for pouring lead or something, but there are no remnants of such! But a wonderful little mystery

      For pouring melted wax into candle molds, possibly. I’m guessing.
