looks like half of some sort of bearing

 

[williedigit]

Looks like maybe half of a candle stick mold

 

[cudamark]

Maybe half of a clamp adapter for holding a piece of pipe in a small vice?

is the radius lined with a different type of material? does the first one you found match the second one you found?

 

[teammajic]

The fisrt one is a little smaller than the one in the picture and its all the same metal either brass or copper thinking more along the lines of brass because of the weight i have never seen anything close to it my grandpa looked at it for awhile and he said he didn have a clue

 

[teammajic]

I told yall wrong the one in the first posted picture is the smaller one of the two

 

[teammajic]

the one on the left is the first one i found the one on the right is the one i first posted

I think they are half of a bearing

 

[marion moore]

what are those square looking indents on the outside of the far left? are they any numbers or letter on them to match the halfs?

thanks, marion

 

[teammajic]
