Anybody know what this thing is?

[southkogs]

I was looking around to see if I could find something similar, but I was wondering if it's not a weight for a scale.

I think it's a sliding stop pawl for a clamp or spreader

That makes sense.

But it's all a moot point now. The thing's in the recycle bin now.

Thanks for all the input, guys!

Ain't that the truth? :lol:

Throwing away is better than putting it in that "safe" place. As long as you remember it was tossed, otherwise the garage will be turned upside down looking for it.

How would I know?

Yup - If I throw it away, I "remember" having it while I hunt all over. If I put it in a "safe place where I'll find it easily" I never see it until I buy a new one. :stupid:

That's how I ended up with 2 electric drills......

1/2" and 9/16" box end wrenches must clone in my tool box. But can I find one easily - NO!

 

[Skipper Sean]

It seems the tool you need is the one you can?t find and in my case I usually find it in my pocket. .

And 10mm............

 

[avenger79]

glad I am not the only one with run away tools

 

[Skipper Sean]

By the end of the week I have tools from one end of the shop to the other.

 

[Scott Danforth]

And 10mm............

 

[GA_Boater]

Plenty of 10mm's except I can never find the deep guy. Metric Crescent wrench breaks the nut loose until the shorty fits.

Plenty of Metric Crescent wrenches - Even have an SAE version and one that's SAE and Metric. Very versatile!

 

[WIMUSKY]

That's one thing I've yet to purchase is a metric crescent wrench. Christmas is coming tho!
