    Very heavy. Each cylinder is over 1kg. Also Two bars which screw into the cylinders. Each cylinder marked with a diameter. I have no idea what it was used for material appears to be stainless.

      Perhaps calibration or hydraulic related? I have no idea

      Inside cylinder gauges. Now for what use ?

      Thanks Blunderbuss. Something large; maybe a boilermaker's tool. Two rods are hollow, so it makes sense to connect a pressure gauge on the end. I'm not sure if it is a complete set or it's history as it was abandoned in a house.

      I'm not sure Thomas. The only markings on the cylinders is for the diameter. There is no markings for weight. My first thought was test weights too, but i'm leaning a measurement of pressure inside a cylinder.

      That would be up to some big bloody wire, Thomas ! 20.7 cm ! It's an I.D. gauge set!
