    OK, so I happen to have this tool that looks EXACTLY like a drill chuck key, but a VERY large one!!! let's see IF anyone can identify the exact origins or use for it!!?? I know my tools fairly well, but NO clue on this one yet!!
    NO photoshop at all used here either!! Handle measures 12" and full length is approx. 18"!!!! the pilot on the very end IS .925 dia!
    I do not believe it is actually for a drill chuck!??, but maybe for some piece of equipment that is adjusted in a similar manner as a drill chuck!!?? Maybe a railroad jack? or house jack? or ?????
    The small key I have pictured next to it is a NORMAL size key! and the $20 bill is also just for size comparison! ANY ideas?? Thx!!
