Edge finders, commonly known as "wobblers"

Dead right Mick..... well done!
Now we need another object.

What is it?

Are there no takers?

Is it a printing block?

Yes Wendy it is. Now we need another object....

What is it? (It's about half an inch wide....)

Is it a door-spy view ‘thing’ ?

Sorry Cathy but no. Clue, it's machine related.....

Ball bearing spring loaded transfer unit possibly?

You've got me there Gloria, no but it could be! What exactly is being transferred?

Sheets of metal primarily

Sorry no Gloria, remember the size only half an inch across. It's far more simple than that....

Mordax stud?

Emergency pressure release stud?

Sorry to both of you, Gloria I didn't know what a Mordax Stud was so I looked it up. I see they are made in Nelson and I now know what they are!

One more clue.... An essential adjunct to routine maintenance!
If there is no correct answer I shall knock it on the head today. I am surprised it has survived, you have seen it before.

What is it?

A wig?
What was the last one Stanley?

Sorry about that Gloria, I posted the answer but it got lost somewhere. The hexagonal brass object was a grease or oil nipple. Commonly known as a hook on. Very common before the arrival of the almost universal Tecalemit nipple we are used to today.
The next image.... Sorry but no. it isn't a wig.

It's a haggis.

I can see why you said that Wendy but no, It is something else.....

They usually have tartan Tam o Shanters on...I should have realized.
Is it a microphone cover?

Is it Star Trek related?
