This is a rather simple vintage kitchen tool. As far as we know it was used as some kind of hand mixer / whisk / frother (you rolled the stick between your hands to move/rotate the 4 cm wide 'star'). It belonged to my husband's gran, but he can't remember that she ever used it - so it might have be some family heirloom of hers
It's the only vintage technology I found here at our flat except for the more common vintage photography equipment (analogue bodys, lenses, exposure/light meter) and cassettes / records / turntable : ))

Pliers.
The advantage of inheriting the tool collections of at least three people is that you find some interesting oddities. The disadvantage, of course, is that you end up with an awful lot of tools that you are destined to keep “just in case”.
At least I have found a use for this one! It’s is a miniature pair of pliers. It was definitely my father’s and perhaps my grandfather's before.
To suggest a story, and to add scale and contrast I thought I would try setting it within the carnivorous maw of an ordinary pair.
This is for the Macro Monday group’s theme this week hand tool, suitably cropped for the group’s three-inch guideline.
Thank you for taking time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Macro Mondays :)
[Daylight; tripod and remote release; VR off, manually focused. Blue card background.
Developed in Lightroom trying to emphasise the metal textures. Square crop; rotated along the diagonal for strength.
Processed in Affinity Photo, with a bit of touch up.
Sharpened first in Topaz Detail and then with a touch of Unsharp Mask and High Pass/Linear blend.
A bit of tweaking with selected colours to reduce card detail.
Slight dark vignette.]

Smile on Saturday Kitchtoolia theme: an archive image this week, I spent some time last night taking photos for the theme but didn't get anything I was happy with.

The vast majority of images I do these days are macros, so just taking this photo felt strange in itself. For me, these tweezers are invaluable when I'm picking up and arranging tiny objects like the stiletto shoes in this image. The shoes are as light as a feather and only ½" long. I frequently knock them over! I find these cheap plastic tweezers are much easier to use, and far more accurate, than metal ones and I wouldn't be without them now. The background is a modern dolls house carpet.

Another theme with way too many possibilities. A quick snap I took today, after, rather unsuccessfully, plundering the tool box and kitchen drawer all day yesterday. The German sub-category for "Hand Tools" is listing brushes as such, so I figure a lenspen is OK for today. Also the lens itself is all manual; it's a souvenir I brought along from a visit to Hamburg last year, a cheap vintage Zuiko tele zoom lens originally designed for the Olympus OM-System.
A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!
Mal wieder ein Thema mit viel zu vielen Möglichkeiten. Gestern hatte ich den Werkzeugschrank geplündert, die Küchenschublade ebenso, aber die wirklich zündende Idee blieb dieses Mal aus. Heute also der Griff zum Lenspen, der als Pinsel zumindest in der deutschsprachigen Unterkategorie bei Wikipedia als "Handwerkzeug" gelistet ist. Na ja.
Ich wünsche Euch eine sonnige, schöne Woche!
Came across this robot at a car show, made from all kinds of hand tools!This creative man had all kind of big and small unique robots!
