What is this

All completely wrong, but go ahead...........its your thread.

And I doubt that is a altimeter from a sub! It looks very much like a old one common on Piper Cubs and Cessna 172´s.

a certain class of sub did and for a good reason

 

Wiki:

Diesel submarines have altimeters installed on them to monitor vacuum being pulled in the event the snorkel closes while the diesels are running consequently sucking the air out of the boat.

 

They have a New Fangled type of Gage called a Barometer to measure pressure in Submarines

But My favourite is the Sling Phycrometer. Weeeeeee!

lets you see the Dew Point before it pricks you.

on a tour of a guppy i laughed when I saw one but the explanation makes sense

 

Here you have a real challenge, but I don't have the answer...

A reader of a local newspaper asks, what's this?
He is quite certain that it is a tool of some sort.
It is 13 cm long with a spring loaded ring around the tip.

 

OK, here is one that has an answer.
Probably easy if you have seen one before

What's this?

 

it looks like an old pin vice

 

some sort of wire bender/former?

 

Thanks for the pin vice tip. I'll look into that.
You mean lie a wire pin vice?

The last one is not a wire bender, it's old and was probably used in boats 1200 years ago.

 

jewelers use pin vices

a peloris or something to take angle readings?

sun compass?

 

That looks to be very right Wardd..!!

Congratulations..!!

Cheers,
