Two More Chunks of Steel
« on: August 28, 2011, 02:32:18 PM »
 The one with the holes and slits in it is pretty small like the biggest hole is maybe 3/16" at best.  The other piece with the step grooves has a threaded hole in the middle of it.

TIA

Gotta quit posting stuff after I've fallen asleep at the computer, boys.  I deserved every bit of that!!!  Well, I coulda said I was waiting for a plausible answer for the last one before I did pixx of these two, but I decided to man-up for a change....

Hexagonal one looks like wire and sheet-metal gauge block.  Other could be part of larger assembly, maybe part of a clamping or positioning device.

Hex one looks like a bench block, for bending or upsetting various small objects, forming wire ends, etc.

More views of the other would be helpful

The hex block is a jewelers bench anvil. For forming metals
 The other is just a part off something.
