I once knew a “song” about these but I’d like to go on “record” by saying that I’d love to win this contest.

Easy this time eh?
Although I really kind of wish people in the comments wouldn’t give hints…
Meh, still kinda cool.

Mike is right. It’s Mary’s little lamb chop tenderizer apparatus machine cylinder. Invented in 1774.
