What is this tool??

[Egon]

I meant to take more pictures.... :laughing:

But I hear you on the junk collecting... I'm going through the process of gearing up to let it go, too. :thumbsup:

Sound like you got some Shopping trips planed?

Wish I could! At the moment we're in a motel near San Francisco. We met Younger Daughter* who flew out from NYC for a job interview, she wants to transfer to the West Coast. We're playing tourist today/tomorrow while she is here with us.

* Inspector507 - Remember Younger Daughter? yep that's her, the kid who bicycled across the country alone. Since then she finished grad school at Princeton and is working in a very responsible job in downtown Manhattan. Obviously got her brains from my wife.

It sounds like you need to ask Younger Daughter about this tool. She's got more brains than most of us on here.

Could it be bolted to a table and used as an adjustable hydraulic clamp for assembly or welding?

NO! :laughing:

With cutter blades?

 

[dragoneggs]

Part of a jig to make repeated scoring cuts when mounted to a table with stops? Maybe for glass cutting?

Wow, over 400 downloads of that photo and no positive ID yet.

Is this a record on TBN? Did I win the Internet?

 

[MossRoad]

Google image match can't find another one like it either.... maybe its alien technology?

Maybe it has something to do with pallets?

I thought everyone knew it was a doughnut holer. How else do you think they get the holes in doughnuts? This tool only does them one at a time and is for home use but they have bigger and fancier models that are automated that will do many doughnuts at once for places like Krispy Kreme and Dunkin Doughnuts.

I'm back in town. I'll have to go back and see if it's still there. It would be half-off this week (yellow tag) so I might buy it just out of curiosity.

Now you're talkin'!! :laughing:

OK now I'm curious too!

To keep your clutter down, post more photos, then send it to the person whose guess was closest.

A 3/16" Allen wrench holder?

My dad always called such things as "a hoggle toggle for a slobber valve"

Wrong! According to my Dad, it's a "Layover to catch meddlers"; alternatively a "plug out of a shikepoke's arse".
