Dash it - I thought that but since I'm always wrong didn't go for it. Aunty Josie had a hardware shop for a while, and I've watched her using one similar. :smile:

No! :laugh5: I did a search on the image, and the only vaguely similar object was for key cutting but your final clue gave me the confidence to answer!

Still related to wheel alignment; what are the other two measurements when considering steering geometry?

Something that a furniture upholstery man may use to put in/out those little bead studs.

Think they put the studs in their mouth and pick them out with a magnetic hammer.
