Havn't made any attempt to find info, busy day.







The pin has to be removed to adjust the clamp.

Thanks Bus, is there a reason why the patent doesn't look exactly like the one I pictured?

rusty


NB: The patent mentions the usefullness of the tool for spreading a cut in a tire for cleaning (and presumably glueing)
Just a weathered light rust/WD40 mix patina.
