You can make guess about it as often as you wish Shasta! :D

It DOES look quite a bit like a trap, doesn't it? ;)

Ist one, I voted coffee  grinder. The bonus one is very bemusing, I think it is connected to either heat .Maybe you open the small aperture and put hot coals in.It the opens up completely to allow for removal of the ashes.The aperture could also be used to control air flow and so temperature.It is pretty small so maybe a coal heater for camping.Not sure why it is pyramis shaped though.
I know it's an early prototype for that pyramid that Fergie,(Prince Andrews ex) used to sit in, to cleanse and enrich her life.As you can tell I am grasping at straws here,

1st guess -- trap
2nd guess -- noisemaker
3rd guess -- portable heater to carry in a stagecoach or wagon as you travel
More later if I think of some.

LOL to Optom at the Fergie connection.  :D

I voted for "Part of the chime mechanism from a church steeple." There seems to be some sort of clockwork cogs there?  ???

For the bonus object, I like Shasta's suggestion of a small, portable heater or warming device.  So, that's my guess too.


So, David, if we get both objects correct, do we get two lambs from Ennis and Jack?  Or is this still a one lamb game?

If you get both of them correct, you'll win a lamb from Ennis and Jack (for the main question) and something different for the bonus question. I haven't decided what the prize will be yet. :) :D
