    Morning

    I got a tool from my grandfather that has died.
    We only found it now 15 years later in a box.
    I don't know what it is, or what it does.
    I guess it's about 40-50 years old.

    It looks like a hand operated small non electric lathe with a handle at the back.
    The only name I found on the tool was PEFRA.
    I suppose that is the manufactures name.

    You clamp it to a table.
    There are small chissels that rotate about 120 degrees around the centre object.
    Back and forth.
    The centre object rotates as you turn the handle.



    Thanks
    Johannes

    Any way you can put a picture up for us to look at?

    Sounds like a peeler or huller of some kind maybe for apples, walnuts, or corn? Just a guess.
