A surveyor friend purchased this item from an antique dealer. I don't know the dimensions yet or what the rods are made of since it was purchased by my friend based only on the photos. The rods might be 24" in length. I thought perhaps someone might recognize what it is without knowing the specifics until it is picked up.
