A New Parts Question
Does anyone remember this part or know what it was used for, of why it is no longer used?

Re: A New Parts Question
Those are spoke tightening washers. Drive them between the end of the spoke and the fellow to tighten up the wheels.

Re: A New Parts Question
"Spoke tightening" might have been a rather inexpensive repair back in the day BUT, considering the speed we drive our Ts now, rebuilt wheels would seem to be the most prudent.
