Hi
This one won't be easy, can any one guess why and what I made this for?
Hints.
1. It is camping related.
2. I don't need it when the weather is pleasant.
3. I don't have a camper trailer.

Are you least going to give us warmer colder????
The length looks like it has some significance. And the toothed ends would hint at it being used to space something apart that is done repetitively.
-
Why is one end different to the other?
Is this an important thing or did ya just cock it up when you cut it?
Can it be used by the wife as well as the husband?
Why did ya paint it such a sh!tty red colour?
Can it be used during campany or not?
OK, here's my guess..... its for holding a camcorder so ya can film yaself having sex. What do i win.....well

The collector for the timed switching device that is incorporated in the nature of the bee-bees in brine as used in a flux capacitor. In conjunction with a magnetic field and the load, the flux capacitor uses the hierarchical structure of the cosmos as a timer! The trilamination of the tiny spheres with selected metals and their subjection to a magnetic field and current (sustained by the load) destabilizes the orderliness of the proton, the heavier atom and the "tissue" of individual layers of metal. The matter then seeks to re-establish itself in the fractal set.
Am I warm?

A rope tensioner???

1. It is camping related.
2. I don't need it when the weather is pleasant.
3. I don't have a camper trailer.
1. Well that makes sense as it's a camping forum.
2. But you will need it BEFORE the weather gets too unpleasant.
3. Many people don't. So you either have a swag, a tent, a canoe, or sleep in your beast.
You've hinted that it's for spacing something that you do regularly enough, but you still need some form of guide to do it right and built one. You also hinted that you can't tell 400mm from 350mm by eye. ;D Me either.
I'm trying to fathom what could be 400 apart and used for camping in inclement weather. It's got nothing to do with ropes or pegs I'm assuming.

OK lets have another crack at this. Would it be used to roll up a guy rope?
-
Hi,
think along these lines.
I had to make it - nothing like it on the market.
What sort of camping rig do I have - check some of my trip reports.
cheers

Well you have a tray back pop top on a landrover 110 variant.
Its not for checking the oil in the landy is it? ;D >:D
Is it for locking the ladder into the camper in place properly?
Cheers

Is it for pinning something in place? Eg: to stop a door swinging in the breeze OR hold a door against (say) the kitchen.

its for a landrover cruise control hook one end on the pedal the other on the seat adjuster ;D
-
Stops the roof of your camper coming crashing down and locking you inside when it gets windy, and the gas struts fail. :)
Awesome looking camper by the way I haven't seen one of those before.
-
Hooks onto Land Rover dash and gear stick to stop said Land rover jumping out of top gear,big improvement over forked stick cut from the bush
-
I was thinking the roof also initially, but maybe it's to hold the awning a little closer into the camper so the wind doesn't flap it all night...

Bingo!
Hi, well done, and here I was thinking it was so obscure it should last a week or so.
Yes, fully extended the awning catches the wind. The manufactures supply two bracing rods from the awning to the base of the camper, and reckon it is good for very strong wind conditions.
However after a night of Southerly busters at Cockle Creek some time ago, I'm very happy with my modification.
Reducing the 'sail' area by half, and the leverage by half seems to do the trick and I feel it is better to avoid rather than absorb the wind energy.

The door opens just enough, and rests on an existing bump stop
Thanks for all the replies.
