It’s a grinder. There’s a piece inside that you can switch out for different grind, uh, resolution. Grind meat or grain, chop nuts, make baby food… we had one when I was a kid. We didn’t use it that often because Mum found it was a pain to get the thing clean after.

Garlic grinder? Do these things ever have a winner? It seems like a few people are positive it’s a corn thingy remover, but no acknowledgement. Seen that before, too.

I’ve seen this used to grind corn into meal, but I’m pretty sure Mike Rowe also used something like this on Dirty Jobs to grind fish into chum.

My dad has a couple of these. It’s meant to be used for removing corn kernels (uncooked of course, and generally field corn) from the cob, although another creative use he has for them is removing the outer husks from black walnuts. Talk about a yucky black-stained mess.

It is not a meat grinder! It is a musical instrument, called a Krutchenatoria No. 7. It was played in the 1860′s by traveling musicians throughout europe. Seen in marketplaces and streetcorners, they fell into disfavor by their gradual association with harlotry, eventually being banned by writ of a papal bull.

Its sound, when played properly, is curiously arousing.

Or a meat grinder, but that’s already been said…

It’s a “corn grinder.” It’s used to remove the kernels from the corn cob. When my Mum was in 2nd grade, she got her hand caught in this exact model. Didn’t do much damage but there was blood everywhere, according to her. She used the resulting scars to tell her left hand from her right for the next few years. The chickens, who were fed the bloody corn, didn’t seem to mind the extra flavoring.

Definitely a corn sheller. Removes the kernels from a dried ear of corn. I’ve used one myself.

An old-fashioned way of getting rid of those stubborn, huge calluses. Instead of using sandpaper or an emery board, just stick the afflicted appendage into the cup and sand away!
