What Is It? (or ... how dumb am I?)

[Brad Schafer]

Found in a box of accumulated stuff in the shop. It's aluminum; radius of a 10" sawblade (give or take), 1/8" thick. Small hole (second pic) is 1/4".

I have no idea what this is. :confused: A little help?

Mid 80's Dewalt RAS blade guard.

odd ... never been a dewalt RAS anywhere near here. do have an old craftsman, but no idea how it would mount.

[Lee Schierer]

It does look like a RAS guard. I don't recall which brands used that type of guard.

How about Black & Decker, same as Dewalt 770 Powershop

The second picture looks like one of those photo smiles they use in the commercial on TV. I forget what they were selling.

sunuvagun. you've answered another puzzle piece by posting those fotos. the (apparent) kickback preventer (post with feet on the end) was another find that i was wondering about.

i tried putting both on the craftsman RAS that i have. neither fit at all. oh well... thanks for the education. :)

Looks like the worlds largest "Jesus" clip.

Most people call them "E" clips. That is until they send one across the room.
Or drop it into the worlds largest 2-stroke crankcase.

That's a BIG wrist pin I tell ya.

I think both of those items are reasonably sought after (if not too pricey) by people over on OWWM.org - you may want to post a FS in the "Bring out your Dead" forum - price high and lower it if you get no bites.

(I have a Dewalt RAS but I have an anti-kickback pawl and I don't need one of those silly horseshoes, so no personal interest on my part)
