2221 Radio???
2225 This looks as if it might work like the mechanism in my fireplace that holds the flue damper open in one of three positions or lets it close.
2225 Ha!

2226 Dowell point used to mark matching holes for wooden pins to be inserted.
2221: Radio?
2222: Pickle Barrel?
2223: Early American Pizza stand off! 8>) or a cup holder?
2224: Safe opener? Security door entrance device?
2225: Barn door closers?

Excellent, go to the head of the class! I'll pass this on to the owner of it, I'm sure he'll be happy to find out what it's for.
Thanks, Rob
This isn't a woodworker's tool, and it wouldn't found in a toolbox or hardware store.
It's not a radio but this answer is not far off.
Nope, it's only 6" tall. Although that sounds like a good novelty package idea, like how some wine comes in a wooden box, in this case each pickle comes in its own barrel. ;-)
Close but no cigar, the second word is correct.

Someone found this unidentified tool in a drawer, anyone recognize it?

Hip Flask?
"Rob H." fired this volley in news:iopcdu01np8 @news2.newsguy.com:
It's a record player. It "drives" around the record, following the groove.

2222. Powder keg for priming powder?
Yes, it was marked 'early powder keg'.
What if the song ain't got a groove? Is that what 8-tracks are for?
It can't be good for the record. But it is an interesting idea.
Another name for it is 'Vinyl Killer', so I guess it's mostly for records that you really don't care about.
Shucks, I was gonna say 2222 was a Brandy flask from a St. Bernard rescue dog.

There's something funny about the hoops, which is why I put a question mark on it. They don't look like regular wrought-iron hoops -- maybe wire or something -- but I can't make it out from the photo. Powder kegs usually did not have wrought-iron hoops because of the sparking hazard.
