found this… but what is it ?? :thinking:

I’m pretty sure its a temp gauge for kilns, ceramic kilns. the “CONE” label is to mark the start of the transition of glazes that are applied to ceramics and the state of the clay, I think the smaller numbers in that area would be for different temp pyrometric cones … same type my parents used for their kilns, until dad got sick of reading it and swapped it to a digital rs232 temp monitor to talk to our atari st.

Hi @BoRRoZ, you really made me laugh with this one. I studiously read all your workbench and bargain postings and often follow the links and sometimes buy samples of the things to try out.

I want to buy one of these… but - for the first time that I can remember - there does not seem to be a link with the image! :open_mouth:

Please can you post with a link. Big thanks from me for all your posts.

:blush: Sorry! :grimacing::pleading_face: - I only took a half dozen! Work well with the Pilot & re-housing Laird RG186’s :wink: I bought them as smaller/compact options as alternate to usual EZ enclosure : Outdoor Enclosure, 1 Ethernet, 4 N-type holes » E-zy.net
(They look to be old (think maybe 1990’s Nortel? sourced from EZ) CATV break-out/repeater cases - nicely made…5x Cable glands or N-type vs 4 for the SOE01 )

:thinking: actually I could do with a couple more so if anyone finds some please shout here! :wink: I looked quickly a couple of months back, no joy…
