What is this used for?
This looks like a bit of some sort, but I have no idea what for.
On the shank I believe it says “Greenlee 5/16” JI”.
Thanks

Can someone identify was this is? I know it is some sort of surveying instrument. I would appreciate any other details. 10” high and 6” wide and made of brass. Thanks
Don’t know what a part is called, but need to replace it?
I’m building SnapShop AI to help with that. You can take a picture of an item, part, tool, fitting, etc., and the app tries to identify it and show buying options — local, online, and wholesale/import options when available.
It’s built for DIY projects, homeowners, contractors, and anyone who has ever wasted time searching the wrong words or making extra trips to the store.
I’d really appreciate honest feedback:
Did it identify the item correctly?
Were the results useful?
Was anything confusing?
What would make you keep or delete it?

Not looking for praise — I need real feedback.

Help identifying this tool.
Being a sucker for any thing mechanical I picked this up at a local auction with some other bits. Thinking it was some sort of metal punch, cutter or notcher. After a little work got it working, to find that I believe it's missing a jaw/cutter/blade/punch. But with no identifying marks I don't know where to start looking for spares. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
