Morris Minor Owners Club

Hello

Can anyone out there identify this? I picked it up at an auction with a bunch of old spanners[frame][/frame]

What does it say on the label?
Not sure of the scale but might it be used to offer up a wheel that is bolted rather than using studs?

the label is from the auction and its the lot number. I'd say its about 2 foot in length

Looks like an old blacksmiths separating tool ??

What does it separate ??

Sure I've seen one of these in the dentist surgery

Roy a similar tool used to be used on old lorry hubs and wheels I remember seeing one many years ago

it needsto be bigger than that then

this is a floor board clamp , used them many years ago. The two lugs go either side of floor joist pull handle back then tighten against side of floorboard with threaded part. Damn fiddly to use but if pushing boards against a wall you could push wall over if not carefull

Chuffit you are a Gent sir, much obliged for the help.

Compare and contrast with the modern one;[frame][/frame]

Crikey!! Glad it's not used by Dentists......
