shell follower.... yeah! .. the cappy thing on the springy thing!! 

ok..... looooking looooking ... hmmmm here we go!! .. have taken 4 different and each more revealing shots of this... but heres your first one!

coffee grinder?
Pasta machine?
Meat grinder?
Pencil sharpener?
Food processor/Blender?
Air Raid Siren?

Your husbands ball washer

ahhhhh.. your a funny lad Plisky!! 

it is a grinder type thing yeah .. but not coffee or meat ... or 'mary-jane'!

it would have been one of those 50's/60's/70's type things ... 'that you just cant live without!... ring now and receive a set of steak knives as well' if it was a tv advert .. 

photo #2

French fry machine?
It'd be so much easier if you'd just remove the painters' tape

no not french fry/chip machine...

and its electrical tape!! .. TYVM .. if you dont mind!!  ... it would be easier... itd be even easier if i took a photo of the bottom of the whole thing which has all the info on it... gotta have some challenge though..

should i pop up the next pic?... or wait for a few more guesses? 

.. also... this thing WAS made under license from a USA company design ... manufactured in Aussie though...

I dont know for sure... but i bet Beavers dad probably had one .. which is not really a clue... just thought id mention it... couldve been one in the Bewitched household too?.... they would probably have needed one.. well if it werent for the witchcraft anyway... 

Does it grind up grains? Like on the side, c is for corn, m is for millet, f is for flax? 
Edit: or f is for flour?

Baby R2-D2?

Is it a vintage hot shave lather or towel machine? For shaving beavers?

Tallemerte ..thats a good thought!... but no...

Coarse Medium Fine i beleive ... though after switching through the setting while looking in... cant be that much difference! ... i dont have any of what is supposed to be in there handy .. or i would test it to see consistency! ...

geeez... i nearly blabbed it out then without thinking!! 

and lol Plisky! .. could be an embryonic droid i spose... but no... not for shaving stuff or towel either
