It's a table for cutting the heads off chickens.

Put their neck under the lever to hold 'em down, chop em off, and let the head fall in the bucket.

Kinda gross if you ask me...

It's a bucket to collect maple sap in. The bars inside are to catch leaves and sticks that may fall in. The notches on the bottom are to sit on two nails hammered into the tree.

Maybe a chimney? You can turn it away from rain with the nodges and use half a lid. The bars keep out unwanted visitors.

Demons. This bucket is from the 1600's and is made of hazelwood. At the time a miscariage was blamed on evil demons and so to coax the demon out of the womb the bucket was 'baited' with 'birthing blood' and place in the room with the victim. At dawn the bucket was covered and barred before the second crowing of the cock. Of course, this was all superstition and reflected the barbarity and ignorance of aur forefathers, but I wouldn't open it just the same.
