It looks like smoke coming out of the ground behind one of the animals. Is that significant? The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Please remember that as tool, it's exquisite beauty is only secondary to the use of it! Hint: When holding a copy it still has a light heft to it. |

Plumbing clamp, but for some very important plumbing that can't be shut down very long for repair? That is very close in so many ways but still too far from the correct use. |

Too many bits Carlos. Please pick one. Not a lock and there two of them shown. The lower right is one fully assembles the other is taken apart to show the workings better. |

Used to fix stripped or mangled threads on pipe. No not for thread, pipe or a cable collar. |

Is it a vice for holding something that's been glued together? The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Is it a jointing clamp for "welding" or gluing plastic pipes together (e.g. the large bore gas or water pipes) ? Sorry Gordon, I didn't register your one... Happy Crunching, Graham |
