oliver2-44 9,699 #6 Posted April 3, 2021 That is definitely a Cobblers mold/tool. Interesting thought to use it for a bodywork dolly 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
formariz 11,987 #7 Posted April 3, 2021 That is a shoe makers anvil. Rarely seen type. Rather than used on a stand like the regular ones this type was used by resting it on the workers legs or lap while sitting. It could quickly be picked up or put away without getting up to use on a stationary stand like the regular ones. They always have two sides to them of different sizes. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

8ntruck 6,991 #10 Posted April 3, 2021 Success. I figured it was some sort of shoemaking tool, but it was more fun to throw a really oddball idea out there to see what kind of replies it generated. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wondered if that's what you were up to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oldskool 6,640 #15 Posted April 3, 2021 I was referring to the other wrench. That adjustable its known as S handled. The other may have been a wagon/coach wrench or a machinists wrench I believe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I watched one sit in Memphis for weeks wondering if it was lost. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One can use it as an anvil for a variety of functions but the real purpose of it I believe is to maintain shape of front of shoe as it is stitched to sole. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
