Close to hitting the "transfer to drivel"button...
Good idea for a thread, please mind the dribble though.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.

I just knew it was going to be a let down. Rug tufter indeed!
Midge promises the next one will be a woodwork related item, don't you Midge?

As a little tacker my brother and I completed a rug my mother had started years before, no doubt we had a fair bit of tuition. But that little rug tufting tool was just a little tube of brass, with what looked like a far smaller needle. You sure it wasn't for rope rather than wool midge?

If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

In an effort to get back on topic here, I'm going to pose the same question which commenced this thread.
Can anyone identify this tool......
If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.
