<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 2173474, member: 6444&quot;]I think OBB suggestion of a dough box is most likely. The sloping sides on the liner makes that likely; classic dough box shape.</p><p><br /></p><p>The pedal is strange; seems it would be easier to just remove the lid. But punching dough is easier done from above so a dough box resting on a table top would be too high (see last pic). So maybe move this to the floor and use pedal to raise lid so it can be punched down while sitting?</p><p><br /></p><p>OP&#039;s made in early 20th century when enamel steel for hygiene was the new rage; previously dough boxes would have been just wood. (I have an earlier period Windsor dough trough with no lid).</p><p><a href="http://www.homethingspast.com/dough-box-kneading-trough/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.homethingspast.com/dough-box-kneading-trough/" rel="nofollow">http://www.homethingspast.com/dough-box-kneading-trough/</a></p><p><img src="http://www.homethingspast.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/dough-box.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://www.homethingspast.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Kneading-trough.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
