    @nblr @Pepijn Or pulleys in some sort of tensioning system I.e. to regulate the speed of a drill press or lathe? The cones certainly hint at a belt that needs to slip onto the cylindrical part.

      @Pepijn
      - too small for doorknobs
      - too small for cabinet feet
      - too big for electronic equipment feet.
      - scratched. Someone (you?) needed pliers (what's combinatietang in English) too get it out.

      Intended as hooks for hanging something with a cord on?

      Machining in the middle bit is a bit coarse. A machining exercise?

          Here's a photo showing some dimensions. Main body is 23mm. The thread 5 or 6mm.

          If they were 5/8" diameter, and the thread was 1/4", they could be used at a pinch to put a camera on a lighting stand, coathanger or not.

                    @mattdawhit Nope. While similar these are very much for a "less destructive" home setting. Not having the support to deal with heavy / crude weights etc.

                            Not an NS train.

                            I'll update the main post and see if people can figure out the train type and location.

                                You mean the location *in the train*?

                                  Want to play a game? Here's a photo of two identical machined stainless steel objects. Can you figure out what they are and where they're from?

                                  I *think* both questions can be answered but lets see!

                                  If you like this idea please boost the post to reach more players πŸ™‚

                                  UPDATE: 1/2 They're indeed high quality coat hooks. Now where are they from?

                                  @Pepijn Assuming you're referring to the location of the toilet in the train, and knowing that anything removable from a traveller's toilet on a train will get snitched sooner or later, and assuming you do not intend to confess theft here, my guess is that they're from a personnel toilet on a German train.

                                      @RolfBly German train indeed. And not stolen (if I did I'd confess here, but I didn't and wonder if these are actually removable at all without first demolishing an entire panel).
