RE: What ist? - Can the Man - 21-06-2021

I wonder is it a form of reamer to ream out an old bolt that has sheared ?

RE: What ist? - Veggie - 21-06-2021

Do the twists follow through or do they go in opposite directions?

Is it some sort of adapter? If the small end fitted into summat, using the nut in the middle to screw it in to the summat, you'd end up with a bigger, open end - or, in reverse. you'd have a smaller end piece and it would be a reducer.

I know what I mean even if 99.99999999999999% of the rest of the world haven't a clue.

Ir you look down the length from the 'nut' they each twist to the right from either end if that helps?

Sorry veggie, include me in all the nines! Rolleyes

MrB think's its some sort of drive coupling that seized and twisted it.

Likewise PP! Rolleyes Just it bugs the excrement out of me when I can't find anything similar.I understand the principle of a crown wheel, pinion and planet gears but can't figure how this would equate?

Where's Fred Dibner when you need him? Big Grin

I'm glad someone understands  Rolleyes

And as for Fred Dibner, felling chimneys in the sky!!

I read Freds lifestory book. He was also an innovative engineer building his own winding gear and pit shaft in his back garden and restoring and running Steam Traction Engines. Cool One of life's characters!
