1 hr confidence:
19 hrs confidence: potato/melon baller
Explanation:
melon baller seems to be more commonly used than potato baller, although it is in fact the same device.
Then there was the potato baller. They call it a melon baller
today, but some time ago it was a potato baller, and I don't know
that anyone even thought about serving little itsy-bitsy balls of
melon. Balling potatoes was fancy enough and reserved for special
dishes liked balled potato and fresh peas.
