Nautical Antique Sailing Ship Fiddle Block, Massive, Forged, Wooden Sheaves on 2040-parts.com
Port Republic, Maryland, United States
|
Unique fiddle, triple block with 7" diameter wooden sheaves. Block is 36" H x 7" W x 7" D and weighs about 50 lbs. A 10' length of 2" manila is attached. This an extraordinary decorative piece for a large installation. The housing is forged metal with blacksmith forged bolts. Block is probably oak, but we have not attempted to clean it. Experts have inspected this item and concluded that it was not designed for use but as a decorative item. The sheaves are not of ironwood and the metal sheathing is not designed for the heavy loads that would have been exerted. We have adjusted the price accordingly. Free shipping in the continental US.

Audi A1 S-Line Revealed
Sat, 06 Mar 2010The Audi A1 S-Line - the Sporty A1 S-Line package gets revealed Having had a little moan earlier that the Audi A1 overshadowed the debut of the RS5, we have to confess that we are finding the A1 a tempting ‘Only Premium Car in its Class‘, mini-bashing Audi. We’re more than a little impressed with the A1 e-tron but the A1 range as a whole does look like it will offer the best competition yet to the market-dominating MINI. Audi has already said that it intends offering a range as complete and customisable as the MINI, which will start at the bog-standard A1 and run the gamut through the electric A1 e-tron up through to the performance oriented Audi S1 (which Audi has already confirmed).
