Used to lock a cue in a wall rack.
Shades of my misspent youth.

A little earlier than usual, FWIW.
2671) At a guess, this is for locking up your horse for a short time by looping his reins through the 'U' and closing the lock.It might have been at a saloon or some similar place, where there were a line of these, and either the key was left in it when not in use, or you had to go in to ask for the key.
2672) Looks like a tool for bending a hook or an elbow into either heavy wire or metal tubing. (At a guess, about 1/4 to 3/8" OD. 2673) Looks like a tool for picking up and bagging golf balls, likely at a driving range. (Though I suspect that they have motorized vehicles for the purpose on a larger scale.)In any case, the hooks on the bottom are formed to let things go through one way only, so the balls would advance up the tube and gather in the bag until it is unzipped and emptied back into a basket or the like.
2674) For holding a warning flag of some sort or the other. It can either be clamped to a tabletop or similar surface, or be stabbed ito the ground.Looks to have a release to allow the flag to lie down, or to be held up at the angle visible. I don't see any springs for pop-up operation, however.
2675) An interesting spark plug. I see eight electrodes around the outside and six at angles on the central part, which looks like it rotates in use -- perhaps to mimize carbon buildup? Certainly there must be a patent somewhere for that design. :-)Was this at the same place as the container of insulators?
2676) Tool for cutting off something fairly thin level with a surface at right angles. Perhaps for wallpaper at the junction with the floor? Or perhaps wood veneer?Now to post this, and then see what suggestions are already posted.
Enjoy, DoN.

I guess if you shoved the tube onto a golf ball, it would go up the tube and into the zip pouch. Could be......
Easier than trying to pick them up by telling them they have cute dimples. I helped with parking, at a golf club one time. For a public festival. Picked up a heck of a lot of stray golf balls, over the couple of days. I can't remember what I did with them. Turned them in to the club people, I guess.

Yup. I've used them to pick up balls at charity "hole in one" contests.
Yes, it was the same place, they had thousands of spark plugs on display, this was one of the most interesting.
All except the second have been answered correctly this week, I'm still trying to find a good reference for it and will post an update here when I get one. The answers for this set have been posted:
The wrench is used on the head saw for circular sawmills. I Couldn't find a picture of the wrench but these links show the type of inserted teeth that it is used on:
showing what the tool does.
Based on the size of the tool, and the drawing, this was a very large sawblade -- from a sawmill, almost certainly. Since the handle of the tool is longer than the diameter of any circular sawblade which I have ever used -- it is not for a home hobby worker. :-)
Enjoy, DoN.
find a picture of the wrench=20
and found a patent for a similar tool, it can be found at this address: ht= tp://
Here's a similar tool on this page:

Thanks for the follow up on the saw wrench. I've never received an email from you so I don't think there was a problem.
