Nope and Nope

[Eichhörnchen]

These wheels look as though they are on a model of some kind: is this a real or a fictitious vehicle?

[Catfish]

The hubcaps of the car from S.H.A.D.O. ?

No what i reall meant are the wheels of Lady Penelope's car, from the Thunderbirds ?

Well spotted, Catfish: I was thinking at first it was the Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle (SPV) but when I found it wasn't that I didn't think to look further afield.

[Catfish]

Thanks :salute:
To be true, Eichhoernchen set me to the right path, with "fictitious", and "model". A lot of Corgi, Dinky and other toy car brands had such wheelhubs, however i remembered this one.

He gave a full picture of something we really can't know instead of just a part of a picture.
That's some confidence we don't have a clue :03:

Guessing, some sort of wheel from a carriage from the colonies :hmmm:

[Catfish]

It is not from the colonies, maybe Britain intended to make it one some day, but .. :O:

The two gentlemen are, of course, english, though i do not know whether they wear military uniforms (possible, but could as well be some kind of museum's uniform..:06:). I am not exactly sure where this scene takes place.
And it is not from a carriage, although it was intended to transport .. something.


Maybe i give it away with this, but has anyone watched the Indiana Jones mini series ? (hint, hint)

Wheel from Forssman Ten-Engine Triplane?

Wheel from Forssman Ten-Engine Triplane?

Nailed it:

http://warnepieces.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/forssman-triplane-bomber-over-nyc-1919.html

[Eichhörnchen]

That was a good one: liked that...:up:

[Catfish]

Yep, that is it ! :up:

The restored wheel is now in the Imperial War Museum Duxford, i think the photo was taken there.

The triplane was planned by Villehad Henrik Forssman and maybe Anthony Fokker, but it was not completed before the end of the war, though airframe and wings were. When the L59 Zeppelin had covered a journey until south of Karthoum and back, and thus proven the US coast could be reached by an airship, the "heavier-than-air" engineers did not want to stand back. The Zeppelin Staaken type R 'giant planes' had already the size of the Forssmann triplane, but not the range.
Wings and frame can be seen here, along with some more info.: https://ortus.rtu.lv/science/lv/publications/7345/fulltext

The plane has a short appearance in the Indiana Jones mini series title "Attack of the hawkmen" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3p1JIdxSpxU,
where it is instantly destroyed by a hydrogen gas explosion.

The gauge, is for a weapon smaller than 20mm and has nothing to do with it's sights or elevation.



Hint 6: The weapon, that requires this gauge to function properly, has been used in the anti-aircraft role, on the ground and in the air.

[Harvs]

Something from a .50 cal ?

[Jimbuna]

A Vickers or a Lewis machine gun?

[Harvs]

A timing gauge for a Browning .50 cal machine gun?

I'm pretty sure that Harvs has it just looked up M2 gauges its either a timing gauge or a headspace gauge.

@ Harvs I recommend using photo bucket or any other photo sharing site.
You can upload your mystery picture there. Make sure to edit it and have your original safe on your OC (so someone can't simply look at your image sharing sites profile and thus be able to find the original)

That is one method you could also link other ways but be careful of linking again you don't want someone to reverse your link and find the original. Also rename any file. You don't want a file that says F\A-18 for your obscure F/A-18 picture.

How to link below is a photo of a challenge I posted previously if you click the link you'll go to the site and with image linking you want the URL option. On photobucket you click the chain link deal and its the bottom. This differs slightly from site to site.

There are other methods but I recommend using a photo sharing site as it is the easiest way to keep your pictures ordered.Also the URL method of posting is how you best get a well formatted picture in your post.
