Well that was too easy. Your not exactly right but close. It is a drop spindle for spining thread or yard. It's not only used for wool. Last yarn I made was Alpaca. But one use is spinning wool so you got it back.

No, but it is for removing something.

And I thought that I was "on to it" or at least getting to "the core of things".

Cheers.

That probably would have been my first guess if someone else had posted it.

I think it's a bit smaller than that. I can't post a pic that gives perspective without giving it away, though.
