Saddlers Clam Stool

[GlenM]

A friend of the family who used to ride with the local hunt (North Cornwall) decided to call it a day. He asked me if I wanted any of his old tools etc I came home with this.

It's well over 100 years old and everything still works fine, I'm going to clean it up a bit and recover the seat and jaws of the clam.
I am going back again next week for an old Dixon plough and splitting machine.

Can't wait

That's cracking bit o' kit! I can feel it's going to have to be added to the list of "things I must get round to making one day".
