Have you tried asking Ted or Sue Kinsey? They know lots about lots of off-the-wall items.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Mystery object of the day


Hello! I have a mystery object. I am guessing it's an agricultural item.
The sides are sturdy oak, with thick dowels alternating sides and height
placement on the sides. Interwoven between the dowels are thin strips of
wood, creating an undulating surface that is broken on the top by two of
the dowels. I have two pictures I can send to anyone who wants them. Any
thoughts on it's use? It seems like the dowels would hamper the use of
the object.

Thanks for your suggestions.
