  1. Anyone know what this is ? All steel, no plastic. Brass gear drive like a speedo that drives a short axle on each side. Two aluminium lube points for the axle. No markings at all. Hope it,s not from a washing machine :rolleyes:.

    I'm quessing it's not auto related, but a right angle gear box for a Henway
     
  4. I'm guessing a generator/water pump attachment for an early 1920s car.

    I agree, its NOT a Gizmo!.......looks more like a damned "doo-lollie" off of a early Shivel-lay! Probably don't need it to make it run.

    The splines on the sliver post look like windshield wiper arm splines.

    Are the two silver things filled with grease?
    If so, they get turned in once in a while to lube the shafts.

  19. It'd make a good quick change for one of those mini vehicles old guys ride around on at swap meets. :p
    'Bout time someone built one that has a motor out front with a shaft running all the way to the back. :rolleyes:

    Guessing same, but more along the line of a "universal worm drive" for small industrial use.
    Something that Dalton Gear might have made years ago.
    Typically, only one side shaft needed to be used for mounting a sprocket; depending on direction.
    The grease cups would indicate it was manufactured prior to self lubricating Oilite type bushings.

    @34 GAZ, what is PWC ?

    That used to be one of my Dads favorite jokes. I tried to use it here a few times...... just sits there. Kinda like yours did........ so I thought I would help the joke out. I guess it’s just too old........or we are! Lol
