I find that wolf tastes more like a combination of pig and little red riding hood.
Your Missus has that "take the damn picture" look that my wife sometimes has. Do you think it's a "trapper" thing?
I haven't a clue as to what your doo-dad is. I figure it has something to do with heat, as most guesses indicate, but I don't know what.
I'll try a guess. It covers the outhouse seat hole.

If the government owned it then it could have been a pork barrel, or lard.

My wife has two guesses; the first is a harrowing disk. The second is a beaver hoop!
My eldest daughter, just back from college for the summer (she graduated and will be attending university in the fall), guesses some type of worn saw blade.

nope nope.
part one is half solved- its cut from a barrel-
clue on what type: think 1876 and gold
Now- still looking on what it was used for.
clue #? on use- the other part of the barrell, was used in a complementary way.

The top was for panning for gold and the bottom was some sort of sluice.
