Wait, just let me oil myself all up before I answer this one.
I am sure we will bore our way to some sort of idea of what
this thing may be.

Is it for handling the latest pipe to add to a drill stem?


Alright I guess we have too many oil men around here. Yes it is a stem elevator. Used for lifting oil well pipe stems. PM Sent, John Got it.

Ian just made an oily mess.

I have never worked on an oil rig. I have, however, watched a couple of documentaries...

[edit]

back in a bit with a picture.

You got it in one. Googled it just to make sure. Now we just wait for it to be official. Good memory.

edit: little late on this post.

Yes, it is a cylinder hone. Since it only has 2 blades, it might be a brake cylinder hone.

I think I can see 3 blades, one of them coming directly towards the camera.
Happy Crunching,

Ok. Looked up more pictures. Looked at a lot of hones. I even found one attached to a drill honing a brake cylinder.

I do agree with several others that the tool in question is a cylinder hone. Be it a small one as you suggest.

Okay, my turn. I hope this tool will be harder to figure out.

That is th project I used one for the first time. The second time was a Honda Civic, and the third time (I used a brake cylinder hone on the engine) was a 550 cc motor cycle engine.

Nope. It is not used for that kind of body opening.
