mystery funnels
I just sent off a jpeg of a couple of "mystery funnels" to the drop box
(http://www.metalworking.com/dropbox/mystery-funnels.JPG) - below is the contents of the accompanying text file - I'd sure appreciate it if someone recognized what these things are - they could be for oxygen masks, or maybe a "pilot relief tube", or ??? I'm trying to figure out if they are something worth keeping after all these years, or if I make them into a sculpture or a lamp or something like that. here are two "mystery funnels" - the slots near hte rim look like they would take elastic, the end of the tube part has a small lump like you would use with medical style rubber hose, the OD of the tubing part is .370 inches. They are 2.5 inches wide, made out of brass, I believe, and chrome plated on the outside - I got them in a big pile of stuff many years ago from a guy who had sold his house to move out of state (to a nursing home perhaps) and had a lot of aircraft surplus from the old Douglas plant where they built DC-3s (clover field in Santa Monica), but I have no particular reason to believe these are aircraft related, though they may be. What the heck are they? -- Bill www.wbnoble.com ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** |
