Another auction what is it?

Dave H (MI) · Sep 25, 2018

These three items were sitting on the pneumatic press when it was auctioned. I posted a picture of the press here last night. I have no idea what these are. The two painted parts clearly belong together. They have the same paint and similar grooving. I am not sure they belong to the press but someone sure thought they did. Anyone have a clue?

The round stock is a nail pin with the point cut off. The holes let you to drive nails into 2x 4's ect. for setting concrete forms.

The oblong loop looks to the top off a handyman or high lift jack used to stretch fence the other part may be from it too not sure on it

The other parts are the top of a vintage "HiLift" jack, and the wire "grabber" that goes with it, so the jack can double as a fence "wire stretcher". Note the other "wire gripper" near the bottom of the jack.

Oh, yeah, and your "press" looks suspiciously like an air operated "oil filter crusher".

For typical "shop press" use, an air cylinder would be uncontrollable and DEADLY.

It's NOT a shop press, it's a filter crusher or some kind of "jig" used for holding, or assembly, or some other type of production use, IMHO.
