What is this mystery Pratt and Whitney tool ???
"Bill Noble" wrote in message ... I think this is probably quite old, but so far I have no idea what it is (or was part of) - there is another like it that has been sharpened to use as a boring bar - clearly that was not its original purpose. the one pictured in the drop box appears to be original - but orignal what, is the question. here are the links to the drop box: http://metalworking.com/Dropbox/P-W-1.JPG http://metalworking.com/Dropbox/P-W-2.JPG http://metalworking.com/Dropbox/P-W-1.txt Anyone got any clues about this item? The text file from the drop box is reproduced below: Mystery Pratt & Whitney tool - the cylindrical shank is exactly .500 inches, it says on the shank, the following: NO. 32 HS.-36 E-12 P&W MFD CT Made in USA it is NOT a drill bit. The part that extends beyond the 1/2 inch diameter shows a wear line like it was riding in a keyway. The point seems to be lathe turned, the 1/2 inch shank appears to be ground Bill - www.wbnoble.com -- |
