Set 147
The weekly collaboration with Neatorama continues, Alex is posting another of my photos and is once again offering a t-shirt for the correct answer.
841. 2-1/2" long:

Five small screws inside of this tool can be accessed by removing the cap on the back end. They are 3/8" diameter, as indicated by the first two numbers seen in the photo above, the idea here is to identify the screws and also to state the significance of the last number (16):

842. 8-1/4" tall:


843. 6-1/4" wing span, the eagle on this piece of hardware has a function and is not just decorative:

9-5/8" long base:

844. 16-1/2" long:



845. 25" long x 17" wide:

846. 12-1/2" long:
