What is it? Weekend Edition 11
These items were all sent in to me.
43. I don't know what this one is: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v8...2012/pic43.jpg 44. The large end is hollow and has a small screw-on cap: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v8...2012/pic44.jpg You can test your memory on these last two since they were posted on the site a while ago: 45. Around 6 or 7 inches long: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v8...2012/pic45.jpg 46. 34" long: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v8...2012/pic46.jpg |

43 I'll make a quick wild guess that this is a well-pipe retriever. It
looks like it might go into a pipe, and when twisted, jam to pull the pipe out. On 12/18/2010 12:25 PM, Rob H. wrote: These items were all sent in to me. 43.

Someone had sent this to me quite a while ago, I've shown it to a few people but no one knew what it was, I think this is first guess that I've heard for it. I'll pass it along to the owner. Thanks |

Thanks It doesn't look strong enough to grab a pipe from the inside securely. My guess is that it is used to clean the inside of a pipe, perhaos by breaking the rust loose. Are the tops of the bolts that stick out worn? Joe Gwinn |

Joe Gwinn I don't know if they are worn or not, this was sent to me a year or two ago, too long ago to find the email and ask the owner about it. Maybe if he reads the newsgroups he will answer your question. Rob |

Maybe if he reads the newsgroups he will answer your question. Rob I wonder if the bolts kept brake linings from slipping. Could it be the shoe assembly of a self-actuating brake to keep the wheel of a hand cart from rolling backward? With a two-wheeled cart, a man might move a ton on a firm, level surface, but not up a steep slope such as a gangway or creek bank. If each wheel had an automatic brake, swinging the handles from side to side would push the load up the slope with a mechanical advantage of (the distance from the handle to the braking hub) divided by (half the wheelbase). |
