In a Kenwood receiver. It is steel, not aluminum.

What is its purpose ?


Is there any trace of someone having been in there before?
On the extended part of the "U" , into the large heatsink, is there a
purpose made anchor point there also ?
A part left over, buggered if he could remember where it came from, but
thought it best to leave it inside somewhere, JIC.
Haven't we all been there at sometime , with odd bits of metal work?
On that front I picked up one of those dash-board cam gizmos last week ,
with 1 second spaced stills setting, recording to SD, to suspend over
the banch for when disassembling the next complicated mechanism, with no
exploded views in a manual
That is a GREAT idea! I am now going to buy one. I do mostly
mechanical stuff and even though I try to document everything I take
apart I sometimes make a misteak. Thanks for posting your idea.

I've always been in the habit of felt-tip marking the joins of plates ,
ith a straight line across the join, before taking apart. And small
boxes for sub-sections that go together. But even then I sometimes end
up with unplaced parts.
This dash-cam is Nikkai ER-130V. Make sure whatever you get comes with a
viewer that allows selecting single frames
I would have though that viewing single frames would be standard.
Thanks for the heads up. Lots of the stuff I take apart has to be
cleaned and this removes marks. Right now I try to take pictures but
it can be a hassle. But just being able to hold an assembly in focus
and not have to stop and take a picture would be great.
