[woodbeard]

Yeah, that's my fridge!

[Jeff]

O.K., we will have a secondary what is it. What kind of fridge? And yes I know. Still want to know what the hootin kanuter is to the right of the fridge.

[Furby]

 It's anything you want it to be. ;)

A saw gummer would be my guess.  Well it's not really a guess,  that's a saw gummer.  Is it home made?

I recon that's a big ass ole' circular sawblade sharpinin' doo-dad..... ???

[Jeff]

Yep thats his home made solid tooth headsaw gummer.

O.K., now the tuffy, the make of the Fridge, and remember, Corley5 is an old tractor fan(atic) ;)

[Tillaway]

Lets see the fridge is an International Harvester?  I used to have an IH freezer.

[Jeff]

Bingo! Thats what it is!

[woodbeard]

Well that's a relief! I don't have an IH, so mine must still be on the porch. Now what the heck is a saw gummer?

[Bro. Noble]

Woodbeard,

A gummer is used to gum out the gullets.  If you didn't they would get too shallow as you shortened the teeth by sharpening.

I just figgered everyone had a gummer in their shed :D

[Jeff]

I asked Greg if it still worked and he said yea, it works great for storing planner knives and such.

[chet]

Geeez, an I always thunk an old fart wit no teeth was a gummer.  :-/   Learn sump'n new here every day.    ;D

Hey Chet - that sounds like my dad! He would put his choppers in for eating peanuts otherwise they were wrapped in a paper towel beside his favorite chair. :D

The saw gummer was put together by my Great Great Uncle Russel Collins.  The stand is made out of windmill tower steel.  The other parts may have come from one that the wood was bad on?  Uncle Russel had an old circular mill.  I have no idea what make it was and don't remember much about it.  Grandpa said it didn't amount to much.  I remember the fridge being in Grandpa and Grandma's kitchen when I was a little fella.
