:confused: Looks like the ground to me....and it may have been raining as it is a bit wet.
I suppose it could be the bottom of a certain cast iron pot though, given recent discussions.

While I was searching for my shears I came across some candidates for mystery object.... You've seen these before. What are they?

For driving into brickwork to steady ladders? Not sure of the size of them so if they are small are they for holding the string horizontally on courses of brickwork?

I'm with China's latter offering, they are for string lines when laying brickwork.

Flared nuts like you get on brake pipes and hydraulic lines?

Spanners for working on engines - the bolts on alternator, carburetor and starter motor?

Liz is right but not quite there yet. Think of the nuts that can be horribly inaccessible.

I'll fess up now and tell you that I had absolutely no idea, I googled it. Amazing what you can find out on the internet.

But evidently not these. Big clue Liz, think exhaust systems.....

This type was used on Cummins diesel pumps to access the rear nuts. Could be used for nut on back of turbo unit. Or any nut with poor access.

Or any nut with poor access.... You're close enough China. They were always described as manifold spanners and were invaluable for getting at the nits that held the exhaust manifold on the side of the cylinder head.... Try this one....
