It's a rock hammer. For polishing and shaping rocks. I'm going to make a chess set with it whilst gazing purposefully at my enormous poster of Rita Hayworth...
That answer deserves to be correct. YOU WIN!
Very nice. So, Canuck, you have set pallet stones and roller table jewels? And you have annealed bent parts? Very impressive. I've never used it to straighten anything bent before. It's frustrating enough setting those tiny stones.
Can be used for warming a pallet for adjusting or re-setting a pallet stone, or for heating a wheel arbor prior to straightening a bent pivot. The item is clamped between the jaws, then the “tail” heated to the required temperature. When straightens a bent pivot, the tool acts a a heat sink to hold the temperature during straightening a bent pivot. After heating, steel arbors must be allowed to cool slowly. If it cools too fast, it will temper, and the steel hardens and the pivot will break.
It’s a Langstrom 7” Gangley wrench for use on a Finley sprocket.
Pallet stone warmer and no, I have no idea how to use one...
