Can someone help me identify the attached tool? The thumb screw allows you to move the arms around. The points are very sharp.
Thanks

Wasn't this already ID'd in your other thread? Really poor form to start a different thread on the same subject.

I just obtained this piece 2 days ago. So since you know all about this , what is it!
Thanks

OP... dont worry about double threading... **** happens. That is a cool tool. They answered clock repair tool... nice. Think it could be used by a machinist as a reference tool on other things...

So lets name it Reference Tool.

Agree with the clock tool. When I 1st saw it though I thought it looked like an alternative to transfer screws but that wouldn't work because you'd have to flip it to mark the other piece. It could only be used to transfer marks to a gasket or a thin plate that could be driller all the way through. So yeah, the clock tool fits.

Yes it is and that was today!!! I obviously was having a problem posting it since everyone cannot be perfect!
Thanks

No problem, I wanted you to see all of your answers. We all know how sometimes software likes to glitch...

Interestingly, I was just working on my grandfather clock and I could see how that tool would come in handy on a major refurbishment!
