A little help with a Teclock measuring device?
awemawson:
I reckon that the secret is hidden in the orange plastic box :ddb:
krv3000:
wood love to find a set like that
tom osselton:
Very nice find!
Henning:
Gentlemen,
Sorry about that. I am beginning to think I need to move away from Photobucket, it's not what it used to be.
I have sorted out the pictures in the first post.
So, anyone have any idea what the Teclock might be for? I had a discussion with my nephew yesterday and we concluded that the thread or wire- idea was probably wrong. Teclock today makes a lot of special measuring implements like thickness measures and the like.

In the same lot I did, however, also get this:
And I really have no idea what it is. Here's the other imortant view:
And the label from inside the case it came in:
There is a very stiff spring which makes it hard to manipulate in a manner which gives a reading on the Mitutoyo dial indicator.
It seems to have been purposely built for some specialised task and the two chromed things on either side of the u-shape leads me to think something like maybe tread or wire and there's a wheel missing in the midle or some such. Anyone have any idea? Any help very much appreciated!

Hi Henning,
It's a bicycle spoke tension meter!
See: http://www.hozan.co.jp/cycle_e/catalog/C737.html
There should be a calibration chart to go with it. Unfortunately it seems there isn't a downloadable chart as they're calibrated individually.
Cheers.
Phil.
