Thread: WHAT IS IT ?
15/01/2022 03:16:47

This is fascinating. I have pondered it and realise that as it stands it does not calculate anything as there is no pointer and so there appears to be a significant piece missing such as an outer dial with possibly a window to set or read off the stamped numbers in the inner dial. The wire may act as a click stop for the outer dial. The dial may or may not behave been connected to a machine or manually set.

Yes I'm pretty sure there's at least one part missing that physically links and gives meaning to the relationship between the dials and the outer figures.

There doesn't seem to be any screw holes in the wooden box that indicate it was fixed to a machine.

Just speculating, like everyone else.
