plumbfitter Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Seeing as you're a sign guy, Is it a bender for neon tubing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theultimatehic Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Lol nope. Neon is bent with flame by the way. This would simply shatter the glass, good try though. Not for fuel lines either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still looking at it but I know it's futile because it's a field of work I know nothing about. It looks to clamp a piece of metal in the right side then bend it with the left side where it hinges. What specifically though, I would have no idea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also have a notcher and a punch. All for steel angle. In this instance i was using it for a different purpose. Bending 1/4" aluminum strips. Only thing i have that can do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theultimatehic Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 A key for doing something lol. I figured most people wouldn't guess angle. This one was made by whitney roper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a key, but for one specific task, remember, I'm a plumber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMack37 Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 Is that for a faucet? I think my Moen's tool is blue. Damn, I thought that bender worked the other way, which would create a larger radius like you'd use for tubing instead of a 90-degree break. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a Moth ball, but I get them out of Paddington's cans.

albert.amantea Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 For removal of the aerator. Here's one i'm going to need help on: .. That looks like an old pair of fireplace tongs. Used for grabbing a log and flipping it. I've also seen those used in blacksmithing for grabbing hot steel to work it on an anvil or power hammer during forging.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk I can't see how that would work though, this item has the pivot clear at the rear of it, and would not have any leverage to speak of vs like a scissor action of fireplace tongs. HOWEVER! i searched for fireplace tongs and found this, so apparently that's what it is! https://www.rubylane.com/item/357005-RL120158/Primitive-Hand-Forged-Iron-Antique-Fireplace .. So maybe my theory above is why they have all been replaced with ones with the pivot like a scissor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
