Shotgun shell loader, missing the crank handle. No markings anywhere on the tool.
No crimper though, need to find one now. From what I found I need to find more items to complete this set. However, now I want to find one complete with the crank handle.. :-)
Measurements of the shell barreal are 7/8 wide 1 3/4 long.
want to say sausage stuffer, but doesn't look right for that, let me think on this one. LOL
The missing section may be the key to this one..:-)
The more I look at it, I want to say Bottle corker.
That is what I thought at first, but there is no place to put a bottle, the end to the right is completely closed off by the black cap type thing, and it is not removable.
maybe a cork shaper? I know sounds silly, but it has something to do with shaping I think.. I have even done an image search and it found nothing.. I am still looking though.
If it is any connection with the majority of his collection, I wonder if it is a shotgun shell loader.. I am looking now.
YEA.. I found it..

It is a shotgun shell loader, it is missing a hand crank to the right.
heidi -- your just getting too dang good at this -- ok -- what's next
heidi -- would you mind taking a look at my "what is it" i think it is a spool threader but not sure -- maybe you'll have better luck when you "bing it" thanks
Amber which post is it, I'd take a peek.
oops I'm getting old and stupid, lol Sorry Autumn, I have "Brain Farts"
Sorry, for the delay, Epson.. I am still new to this. I do not see a link "what is this" am I missing something? :)
hi heidi -- will let kerry recover from his brain fart -- i think he has his fireplace stoked a little too high -- 83 degrees and even the lizards start seeking the cool rocks -- i am reading through the strings on this posting and laughing my ass off -- one always has to remember that our members are all over the time zones -- keep a world wide clock next to my computer that i can crank to cities and country locations -- helps me not showing up stupid
i am also a newbie to cw as a member heidi -- but they have brought me along strong -- of course i am no wall flower when it comes to asking for the order -- always try to do it with a sense of humor-- as the girl scouts use to say -- you will not get the order unless you ask
I love it, everyone is great.. I love the fact of us all spanned across the time zone. I am on my phone most of the time, so please forgive me grammer. I am so glad that I choose to research grandfathers items. You all have brought a much needed smile to my face.:)
