Put me out of my misery

I`ve just found this in the shed and cannot for the life of me remember what it`s for. :no:

It`s quite a common object which I`m sure that I`ve used many times but my brain cell just will not function.

Please don`t say tape measure !

This premature senility is a dreadful thing :lol:

Years ago, there was a place nearby that did house clearances. All the good stuff went to auction and they also had a shop that sold to the walk in trade.

There was always a couple of crates of bits and pieces no doubt from old chaps’ sheds. I used to get the occasional decent tool, but the bulk of it was strange things with that oily, surface rust feel that had me thinking ‘now what on earth is that?’ Just like the OP’s photo.

Yes I think that Bottletopbill ,Tightchoke and Kernel gadaffi are right, it`s the bike spoke tightener (and loosener) thingy.

Cannot remember when I last used it, haven`t had a bike for years, but you never know, may come in useful one day :whistling:.

Thanks everyone, 

OB

You have me curious about this thing myself now. I wish someone would come along and say categorically what it is. I don't really buy the bike spoke thing. Forget the last part. Found it!...a selection of spoke keys.

Oh those with little faith!:rolleyes:
