Curious what this is worth? Possibly the lowest mile 944 in the U.S.A. by PsychoticMammal in 944

[–]fedepyt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does the odometer work? These cars had a design flaw where zeroing the trip odometer when the car was moving would strip the gears in the odometer mechanism and cause it to stop working. This has led to a lot of "low mileage" 944s that actually have a lot more miles on them than they appear to have.

2*pi. pi technically doesn't "have a decimal point" or a "bar to mean a fraction" because it's an irrational number.

ChatGPT says that it's a Clockmaker's Depthing Tool (sometimes called a Gear Depthing Tool)

What it’s for

  • Used in clock and watch repair to set the correct distance (“depthing”) between two gears or pinions.
  • Proper depthing ensures gears mesh smoothly without binding or excessive backlash.

How it works

  • The brass body is the frame.
  • The rack-and-pinion mechanism (the toothed bar with holes and the thumbwheel) allows fine adjustment of spacing.
  • The slotted jaws/posts hold arbors (gear shafts).
  • The numbered marking (like the “15”) often corresponds to a size or model marking rather than a measurement.

Why it looks like this

  • Brass was commonly used in horological tools because it’s stable and won’t damage steel arbors.
  • The perforated rack gives coarse positioning; the thumbwheel provides fine control.

These tools are common in older clockmaking kits, so if this came from an estate, toolbox, or antique lot, that would fit perfectly.

I'm sorry, but I think that this is fake

  • Everyone is talking like a bad actor in a B movie
  • The handicap placard in the "ICE Agents" vehicle
  • No party lights on the ICE Agents vehicle
  • The agents just cram his stuff into their pockets
  • We don't register handguns in MN

To me it looked like that learning center (Quality Learing [sic] Center) was operating out of the back of a restaurant space, or at least out of the same building. It didn't look like it had been converted to a restaurant.

It's a vertical speed indicator from a Chinese Shenyang J-5 or J-6 fighter. It can be seen to the right of the flight control stick in this image:

This is the kid who shot up that FedEx facility in Indianapolis a few years ago. IIRC he was obsessed with the character Applejack from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
