Aside from collecting ordnance i have also started to collect all sorts of sectioned/cutaway items from small things to engines.
I bought this little thing off eBay (not ordnance) and it arrived today. The seller didn't know what it was, i don't know what it is, any ideas??
It has been made into a cutaway (looks like a nice factory cut job by the manufacturer) and attached to some sort of desktop stand, the cutaway thing on the stand isn't very big as it is about 3 inches by 3 inches (fits in the palm of my hand)
Inside the lower part is full of electronic components and the upper part is full of mechanical parts, brass cogs/gear wheels etc.
If you notice around the outside of the lower part is some sort of black rubber ring/seal with some sort of metal ring above that. Obviously this thing would attach into something giving an airtight or oil tight? seal.
The bloke did say in the eBay listing possibly aviation so perhaps an aircraft engine part?? Im stumped!
So, what do you think, seen anything like it before?? any guesses??
