Visited the Settlers Museum near Rural Retreat, VA and they have this tool they cannot identify. Most of the history is from German, Scottish, Irish settlers in 1800's. The lady is showing that the 'T's separate. And also the right side has a place for the 'T' peg to be repositioned closer to the left end. Both 'T's have places for peg like stakes.
She said many people visit and vow to learn what this tool was for, but they never hear back from anyone. Hubby thinks it was related to working with animal hides, or leather. I have no idea.
Does anyone here?
