You're along the right lines with a punch press.

It looks a bit heavy for wool processing, is it for processing wood for the paper industry?

Well as I gave out socks for the sock knitting machine, it would only be right to give you nails for the cut nail making machine.

You have a never ending supply of these...

i will pretend i have an award off you... you mean old wizard.

i feel absolutely "blessed" to be receiving this award. But, I didn't do it by myself. I had the help and support of so many people including many of you here without even realizing it, through blogs, like this. I wish the entire ugoto site could be here to share this honor. They have been my inspiration and my motivation.

I need to especially thank my family. They have been rolling their eyes and shaking their heads for the past 50 years, but they've been behind me every step of the way.

My fellow ugotoairans, thank you for sharing your ideas and your frustrations. Andthanks to my special friends, bamber,pat,sarah,queeny,s or mark and oh many many more, they are just a tap of the keyboard away!

A special thank-you to Nancy the Minx and debz, who has been a pain in the arse for over a year now but have been my right hand people for all that time.
so once again i thank you all.

Actually, knowing the problems you have with sharp objects, I withdraw the supply of nails and replace it with something a little more "Konifur Proof".

Well done Konifur.

The machine belonged to the Crown Nail Company of Wolverhampton, who manufactured cut nails until 2004. Since then the tacks and nails which they sell are sourced from the far east.

This machine is preserved in a Black Country museum.

I'll try and post another 'What Is It' tomorrow (Friday 7th November).

I would have said a key or lock press. I read something brief about the area being well known for that, around that time.

The Black Country area of the English Midlands, which is roughly Wolverhampton and south Staffordshire, was an area of coal mines, coking operations, iron foundries and steel mills - so lots of metal working businesses in the area.
