Anyone know what this is. 
Why and where would you use it.

Its an aircraft thingy.

  ...only an OZ Queenslander could have posted this   story  

1) the PINK cronical cones screw themselves toward the respective PINK flange
2) then the pair of PINK flanges bite/bight on a central thinge

Sorry RaaArtyGunner ...you started the story     :    ..........Derek

C'mon don't fail me now in my hour of need 
Somebody must know what it does and how to use it 
Even cleaned my glasses to get a good look at it.

I reckon it's for an aeroplane control surface, closed loop system.

The threaded rod passes through the surface (rudder most likely) the washer and threaded cones clamp it all up and steel 'laystrate' cables run from the brass links to the servo.

Obviously has no application to boating

Many thanks, all is now clear.
Nothing to do with boats 

[grasshopper]

you could use it for control on one of those outrigger rudders on an off-shore racer....don't ever think it's nothing to do with boats, more you haven't discovered what to use it for......yet.

Topic tidied up - Play nicely boys!
