Tools for an old printing press?
01/25/2012 11:16:43 PM · #1279
Nope. Bigger...much bigger. I believe the wrenches are as long as my arm.

Used on an older ship, perhaps to maintain boilers or steam fittings?
01/25/2012 11:22:03 PM · #1281
Not a ship. Object is on land.

But...that was an awesome guess.

And you took the photo in Freiburg?
01/25/2012 11:26:22 PM · #1283
How did you figure...yes. Taken in Freiburg.

Heh...I see how you figured that out...clever. Now..post the object name. :)

Wild guess: tools for maintaining the tower clock or bell in the Freiburger Münster Cathedral?
01/25/2012 11:47:57 PM · #1285
Yes. I take it you looked at my profile and matched up the date.

These are tools for servicing the bells of the Freiburg Münster shown here against the sunset sky:


Some shots from inside:

Indeed so, and I've learned a bit about Freiburg, too. Thanks for the additional photos.

I'll have a photo up in a short while, unless someone would like to take a turn.

(edit to correct typo...)

Anyone? I'll be a while.
01/26/2012 12:17:44 AM · #1288
I don't want to be greedy, I'll just hang around and wait for one.
01/26/2012 12:37:03 AM · #1289
OK, here we go. Everyone's seen one, but not usually shown like this.

01/26/2012 12:40:18 AM · #1290
Drain plug?

Oh. Too easy. Rear hub, left side, spokes never installed, but I'll lace it this weekend...

Couldn't resist that one. I just trued up a wheel on a Schwinn Sidewinder a couple of nights ago, so it looked familiar. BRB with another photo.

What are they holding, or what is it part of?
I'm going to bed, so it will be around 8: Eastern before I get back on line. If someone wants to post another image to keep things moving, feel free to do so, and we can pick this one up again in the morning.
