Found this yesterday walking along the shoulder of US2 by Nyack. Looks like some kind of picker or maybe a Viking ?ÿforeskin cleaner. A buddy thought it was maybe a cam tool for tire chains.

Viking circumcision is a stretch.

Tierod end of a truck seems like. Or suspension similar.

Thingamajig for a dewfloppy that adjusts your clothes washing machine.?ÿ Shifts it into and out of action.

It looks homemade, and not sturdy enough for a vehicle suspension.?ÿ Perhaps a drum brake tool?

Definitely not a thingamajig, but perhaps a doohickey.

If it were made out of plastic I'd swear it was a Tupperware product.?ÿ They can make any shape and claim it is the perfect device to do something you didn't even know you needed to do.

@flga-2-2

I would check your backsight on that one. I think you are off 180 degrees.

That looks like a custom made tool for a specific use, and losing it is probably a PITA.

If I owned it I'd probably use it to clean dog poop off the bottom of my boots with it.

It's a home-made pendulum for a clock. It must have come loose when they carried the clock out the trailer door during the eviction. Then it was mistakenly left on the side of the road when they found it while looking for the lug wrench to fix the flat tire on the truck.

Happens all the time around here.
