Time to rise and shine Don. People are anxious to see your "nope". I am not a hell of a lot younger than you and I have been up for an hour and ten minutes. Off the subject but are you in the same time zone as me? I can not remember where it changes. If we are in the same time zone you either sleep way to late or you are out feeding the birds and animals. lol Jim

Nope.
Nope.
Central time zone. Get up at 8:00, take dog out, smoke cigarette while dog is out, drink 2 cups of coffee and log in on putter.

Do the groove on the metal one and the stairtread grip tape on the wooden one serve the same purpose?

Will you answer yes-no questions like the one above to give us clues, or will you only answer yes or no to actual guesses at the answer?

Both serve the same purpose. one is just smaller for tighter spaces. I've seen them as small as 4" and as long as 4'.
No hints this time around. Don't want to make it too easy.
The groove and the step tape are only for grip. Otherwise they serve no purpose.

I think they are for making designs on the clay as it is turning. For designing the base of the clay and for cuts as the clay is turning.

Were they attached to a water mill (cams shaft), to do some slicing/cutting job?

I think you were really bored, so you just made some useless "tool" to drive us all crazy. That's an awful lot of work for a joke, but that's my theory.

In wood working they would be called I think a parting or incising, or scoring tool and are used to cut through the material as it is turning to create a nice fine cut through. You could use it to mark fine lines but the main purpose would be to cut through the clay as it is turning.

Nope. I actually used these . I suppose they could be used for that, but there are much less expensive tools made for that purpose. Are we having fun yet
