Hi Inka,

It looks like it's part of a light vehicle jack as used on Kubelwagen's and Schwimmwagen's etc.

Not the best pic, but you get the idea.

Regards, Ned.

It looked like the fuse thing in the bottom was still active??

Thanks Ned

The fuze thing on the bottom was basically a shotgun cartridge and would have been perfectly safe. In the highly unlikely event it was still live, (which, given the nature of the fin it almost certainly wasn't), a quick soak in water and a bit of poking through the holes would have cleared it away completely.

You just threw away a perfectly good relic!!

Honestly.......if I lived closer to you I'd come round your house and give you a slap. Silly Inka !
