I've been collecting unusual objects for quite a while, and several years ago I started posting them on this site as puzzles for
visitors to figure out what they are. Most of the items are mine but a few belong to others, if you aren't interested in tools there are plenty of other type objects that have also been posted.
For first time visitors I recommend this archive for a wide variety of some of my best pieces.

321. This is a visual puzzle more than it is a physical one. The two pieces are attached by the dovetails that are shown. The obvious puzzle is how was it constructed.
It is visually interesting, but once you hold it, the construction and manufacturing method are immediately apparent.
I am sure that R will post a photo of the separated pieces in a week or so.
