I purchased most of my machining equipment from an estate sale of a retired gunsmith and reloader. Part of the lot of goodies included this fixture. The three vertical screws adjust the feet for level, and the side screw adjusts motion of the ball left or right.
In the second photo is another fixture, that I assume goes together with the first, because they both have matching black wrinkle finish. There is a large (~.75") threaded rod extending 3" down from the bottom (for adjusting elevation?)
I asked a gunsmith today if he knew what they were, and he surmised that they were platforms for a rail gun (but he wasn't sure)
Can anybody here shed any light on this for me?
