I have been puzzled by the amount of these things from Africa on ebay called catapults. Why there are so many of them but not one mention in all the books I have. I have also puzzled over where the knicker elastic came from. They could be other tools than a heddle pulley. Perhaps a roach of some kind? Or winding tool for basket making if not cloth weaving.
