Title: What was it used for?
Post by: phillie on August 06, 2011, 11:17:01 PM

This tool was probably hand made by some blacksmith to do a certain task. What task I do not know. It measures 16" long and both arms move. Thanks for your help.

Looks like double caliper to me. One large, one small. Nicely made, I might ad.

Thanks...that would make sense...I got it out of an old machinist box.
