A bearing puller :laf:
Not a bearing puller, but you are on the right track.
Brake drum
Nope.
You would be drinking dinner through a straw for a while.
This is a dental pelican that preceded the dental key. Dental pelicans are so-called because they supposedly resemble the shape of a pelican’s beak. They are believed to date back to the 1300s and are among the very earliest instruments designed to remove teeth. There are many variations in the design of these simple instruments and this is an example of a double-ended pelican. The tooth was removed sideways after the claw was placed over the top of the tooth and the fulcrum, the semi-circular piece of metal at the end, was placed against the gum. The pressure from the lever was intended to remove the tooth. The process was undoubtedly painful for the patient and possibly caused damage to the gums and surrounding teeth. Tooth pulling was the only cure for diseased teeth or toothache and was carried out by barber-surgeons and travelling practitioners.
That is absolutely nothing short of barbaric. Wow
Id prefer a dental hummingbird :innocentwhistle:
