So, how long is your podger?
Phil

I haven't got it mounted its hanging in the galley as an ornament

Originally it would have been mounted on a long shaft probably 16-20ft.

The iron head itself is about 15 inches log.

No it's a wrought iron tool which was previously attached to a long wooden shaft and used for breaking ice and moving ice sheets around specially near locks.

That reminded me of a Posser, used with a dolly tub, pre-electric washing machine days. Just about remember my Mum using one. Eh, we were poor, but we were happy!

Eh, poor but happy. Best laugh were when Ma caught 'er tits in't mangle!!

Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.
