Lets paly what is it!
This was in the pile of parts that came with my new to me 28 Sport Coupe. At first I thought it was a Model A version of the antikythera mechanism
Seroiusly I think its a old cam degree wheel, what do you guys think? Its marked 10-20-30-40 and the center spins.

Re: Lets paly what is it!
It "might" be a "remembering" gear frum a "gearhead", you know, the one that meshes with the RECALL idler, NOT to be confused with the WAKE UP GEAR, which has 3 less teeth!

Re: Lets paly what is it!
My granddaughter, Grace, a second grader took one look and said "from a clock". Why do you have clock parts with your Model A stuff?

Re: Lets paly what is it!
I don't know what your thing is. I have a "thing" that was in my '31 pickup bed for a long time & don't know what it is. The thing is about 2' long with the attached, diecast spring clamp & the woven material has metal ends on it.

Re: Lets paly what is it!
The gear shape part looks like what is left of an old roulette wheel or gambling device.

Re: Lets paly what is it!
NOT to be confused with a 'TINKER'S DAM" which is made of CLAY, & is discarded after use. Thus the saying, "NOT WORTH A TINKER'S DAM"! TINKER is an old English word meaning, meaning, PLUMBER.

Wasn't Tinker a shortstop for the Cubs, noted for starting double plays? Tinker to Evers to Chance.
