Impulse type sprinkler head
Dadant co Bee Smoker ( with lass duct tape on the bellows than mine} Would that box have held Edison recording cyliners? The stone item looks like a projectile point for a harpoon. The tongs arrangement looks like a pin vise perhaps for anglers if the Issak Walton type. |

R.H. wrote: Another set has just been posted: http://puzzlephotos.blogspot.com/ O.K. Posting from rec.crafts.metalworking again. 394) A sprinkler head. Water from the left-pointing jet is deflected by a surface which partially intersects the stream, kicking a weight around the head, which is returned by a spring which rotates the head a little This one seems a bit more complex than most that I have seen, which suggests that it may be an irrigation sprinkler, instead of a lawn sprinkler. FWIW, I was told (when I was a kid) that it was invented by someone who lived in the same small South-Texas town in which I was living. The town is named Cotulla, and I fear that I don't remember the name of the supposed inventor. 395) This looks like a device for applying powder/dust style insecticides to plants. Bellows to the left, reservoir to the right, with a right-pointing nozzle. 396) Perhaps for casting fat candles? (But I don't see things to support the wicks in place. Perhaps for starting plants in small lumps of dirt which can then be transplanted, dirt and all, to a larger pot after the dividers are removed? 397) Survival kit fishing setup? The hook loops through the slot to the right, and the line is wound around the assembly? The point and barb to the right might be for removing the hook from a fish's mouth? 398) Could this be what is called a "seed drill". You stick the spike on the end in the closed (second photo) position into the ground, and then press the handles together, opening the hole a bit while a seed falls down the tube from the box into the hole just produced? 399) A real old soldering "iron" or "copper" It is heated in the flame of an old fashioned blowtorch (white gas fired, I think), and the mass of copper carries enough heat to serve the purpose of heating the workpiece to a temperature which will allow the solder to flow. This one has fairly recently been cleaned and tinned, even. Now to see what others have answered.

Is 396 a dictophone cylinder case? No, it's not for any type of cylinder. Rob |
"R.H." wrote in message ... Is 396 a dictophone cylinder case? No, it's not for any type of cylinder. Rob My initial impression was that the case was for holding jars. Jars are cylindrical, so I guess my first impression was wrong. Are the objects held by the case roughly spherical? The dividers inside of the case appear to be cloth with metal edges. Is this right? Does the rectangular hole in the lid serve a purpose that is related to the objects held by the case (e.g., it allows air to flow around the objects)? Is the hole covered by a screen (I can't tell from the photo)? Is the case used to dry or smoke something (e.g., drying apricots)? Carl G. |

The box didn't age very well so I didn't include this photo on my site, at the link is a picture of the top of the box when in the closed position: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v8...02/pic396a.jpg Or, is there a gap between the compartments and the top, or does the top (quite) seal the compartments when closed? The lid is very close to the top of the compartments when closed, and the objects would not project over the top edge.

Jars are cylindrical, so I guess my first impression was wrong. You're right in that it's not for jars. Are the objects held by the case roughly spherical? Yes, I guess you could say that they're roughly spherical. The dividers inside of the case appear to be cloth with metal edges. Is this right? It's cardboard with metal edges. Does the rectangular hole in the lid serve a purpose that is related to the objects held by the case (e.g., it allows air to flow around the objects)? Is the hole covered by a screen (I can't tell from the photo)? There isn't a screen over the hole, not sure if air flow is really necessary for the contents, possibly it's just for quick reference to see if the box is empty or not. Is the case used to dry or smoke something (e.g., drying apricots)? The case isn't for drying or smoking. Rob |
