<p>[QUOTE=&quot;smallaxe, post: 1966908, member: 13430&quot;]I don&#039;t know if I buy that it&#039;s a kitchen dish rack, but I really don&#039;t think it&#039;s a hay rack. Too small for just hay storage, and doesn&#039;t show the kind of wear and damage animals would quickly inflict on it. I think it is some kind of workshop rack, but have been unable to find anything online to confirm that. Or, wildly speculating here, a firewood bin for an old large kitchen fireplace. The &quot;clamp&quot; part may have hung fire tending instruments.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is there any evidence of where it attached to a wall or something? Don&#039;t assume the paddle looking things are necessarily at the top.&nbsp; Do any of the things that could be feet show wear? Where is the most wear? The wear pattern may give a good clue of what it was used for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
