Hello from Hazard!
Richard Bader, of Middletown, New York, submitted Item No. 1166. Bader thinks it is a commercial butter worker he bought from a creamery that closed in 1954. Two people, one on each side, were needed to move the roller back and forth.
Charles Prunty Jr., of Mount Olive, West Virginia, says it is a wallpaper glue applicator table. The ones he has used are mounted to the roll of wallpaper and then fed through and under the big roller. In the tray or table, was glue.
We didn’t hear anything on Item No. 1167, so we’ll move on to Item No. 1168. It was submitted by Gary Ruggles, from North Jackson, Ohio.

We could also use some mystery items. If you have any mystery items, send them our way.
Item 1168 seems to be a nail puller
