It is a somewhat _unusual_ one. Rope winders usually have an _odd_ number
of hooks, typically 5 or 7.
There's a reason an odd number of strands 'works better', but it's been
too long since I was doing that kind of stuff -- I _don't_ remember what
the rationale is.

Thanks for the info, when I posted that I didn't think that they were hog
ring pliers I thought they meant pliers for actually ringing a hog, but now
I see there is another type of this tool used for a different purpose.

Automotive hog-ring pliers. The offset allows them to close the ring
in an overlapped circle. They're really cheap pliers a la JC Whitney
from the 70's. If you have a large stock of old Whitney catalogs, look
'em up.

Probably right

Correct
I just added another photo of number 196, it's a side view showing that the
holes on this tool are offset 5/32". I've never seen hog ringers that were
offset like this, also the holes are smaller than the usual indentations on
ringers. One more reason I don't think that they're ringers is the handles
seem to be made for work in which you wouldn't have to sqeeze very hard,
although I've never worked with split rings and don't know how much pressure
is required with them.

I haven't received much feedback on my site so I thought I'd ask for
comments pro and con. One possible issue is image size. Smaller ones would
load faster and might be easier on the eyes. I think that large close-ups
are interesting, but it's been suggested that some of mine are too big.
Any comments about what you like or don't like would be appreciated.
Please don't post your replies on the newsgroup, but send me a private
email.

196 appears to be a left or tight side automatic drum brake adjuster.
I see what you mean. I don't have any idea what it is now.

Since the slots are offset, I'll change my guess from hog
ring pliers to pliers for round wire hose clamps, like
this...

As I mentioned in another post, I just added a side view photo of this one
in which you can see that the holes are offset by 5/32", I'm not sure if
this is typical of split ring pliers or not. What type of assembly would
use something like this tool? You might be right about the handles, they

I've finally figured out why I don't see these before there are
a bunch of guesses already posted.
Looking at the "Newsgroups: " header, I find:
rec.antiques
rec.woodworking
rec.crafts.metalworking
*Three* newsgroups -- above my threshold for cross-posting before I get
it automatically marked as junk.
I don't see it until someone replies only in the one newsgroup
the three which I actually read.
So -- I guess that I am stuck with this problem.

That may be because I'm one of the few who is filtering on
cross-posted usenet articles to reduce the noise threshold.
I'm trying some reverse filtering on the "Subject: " header
(please only change the Roman numeral) to undo it.

Once I see a first response with the "Newsgroups: " trimmed back
below my threshold, I can navigate back through the threads.
And I *hate* attempting to navigate newsgroups on Google -- and
would certainly not *post* to them via Google. A web browser is *not* a
proper newsreader, IMHO.
Going to Google would be introducing more problems to attempt to
cure this one -- and I *could* cure it just by turning off the
newsgroup-count based filtering.
If you can cut down the heavily OT postings which are heavily
cross-posted, I would not *need* that filtering -- except for the
occasional spam. (Or maybe it is more than occasional, and I am simply
not seeing it because of my filtering. :-)
Enjoy,
DoN.

I have no problem with the file size, but I do have a cable

I would like to have a better system of finding what was finally
found to be the correct answer.

They often do, but six is also common. It's used to form a rope of
seven "strands", around an untwisted or pre-twisted central core. It's
a common construction where the strands are quite stiff and
heavyweight, around a softer core for flexibility.
There's also little need for symmetry. You can produce a rope with 3
or 5 strands quite easily, just by skipping strands.

Well it is probably not, but if you have done a ton of brakes you should be
able to imagine the short end of the pivot with the holes is where the
manual brake cable end goes through. As the cable is pulled the arm pivots
and the arm that is bent at an angle engages the star wheel on the adjuster
on the opposite end from the wheel cylinder. In my scenario this is not a
tool rather a universally part of the brake system that works on either
side of the car. Be sure to use your imagination. :~)

I agree that #196 is a closer for split rings but due to the cheapo
construction, I'm thinking it's a "throwaway" pair of pliers made to close
"hog ring" fasteners used for automotive seat covers, etc.
used to have the same pliers bought from J.C. Whitney long ago to replace
the seats in a '62 corvair. You do not want the ring to meet but to pass. It
does not take much pressure to do this but after a few hundered or so your
hands do hurt. like I said cheap...

Yes it does but would you really want to squeeze your hand around those
handles? I still believe that this is a part of an assembly of some sort.
