MYSTERY OBJECTS

[Gloria]

The guy looks to have an apron on, so I would presume there is dust about, the round things he is hitting are a few on top of each other, is it something to do with flaky pastry????

[Stanley]

Sorry Gloria no. Totally non-edible. (You're right about the apron though.....)

[Big Kev]

Saggar maker's bottom knocking?

[Stanley]

Amazing! You've done it again Kev! Correct.
Now we need another object.

What can you tell me about this?

[Stanley]

It's an ad justable crank bearing and I don't know why but I think it might be on a sewing machine.

[Gloria]

Certainly not a sewing machine, in fact a lot bigger.

[Stanley]

Then on an early steam engine.....

[Gloria]

Spot on Stanley, it’s on Locomotion in the museum named after it.

[Stanley]

I should have recognised it but wasn't thinking about locomotives.....

[Stanley]

What were these used for?

[Gloria]

Is it a twitch?

[Wendyf]

It doesn't seem long since I answered this one last time!

[Stanley]

Yes Wendy, I expected you would get it. Lets see how long it lasts.
Gloria, I don't know what a twitch is!

[Gloria]

For gripping a horse or cows nose?
Is it for castrating horses?

[Stanley]

Sorry Gloria, neither of those. Archaic domestic.....

[Big Kev]

They were sugar nippers last time

[Gloria]

course they are……sugar nippers
