ok, I got a positive ID on the mystery thing from OWWM - it's the mortise
holder for a delta horizontal mortise attachment - photo of the appropriate
manual page was posted to their shop forum - so one mystery solved, an
avogadro's number of mysteries remain

You and Rob H should swap items, to post. This mystery list is good.

The bracket thing looks bench mount (d'uh) but beyond that, not sure.

You need someone older than I, about that Raeython tube.

please go to my web site (www.wbnoble.com) and click on mysteries and
look
at the first item pictured - it almost looks like a mortise accessory
for a
drill press, but not quite - someone must recognize it, and if we can
figure
out what it is, someone must need it.... and then I can get it to
where it
is needed.

if you don't want to go to my site, here is a direct link to one of
the
photos:

the dimensions and another photo are on my site

now - who knows what it is?

thanks
