sorry pic no post here was a snap to place on the roofing site there the item is connected to 4 others by 1/2 SS cable [why I picked up the whole thing] the cable will be added to my roof as 22k lbs tiedown strap but the SS ends are the what the heck is it 37' foot long cables between the 5 anchors with turnbuckles Last edited by nota; 06-04-2019 at 06:28 PM.. |

 Oh yeah, it's definitely one of those! I'm pretty sure it's part of the intergalactic guidance system for a ship from the nebulon system.

thanks
about $500 of SS cable let alone the fancy end bits that are also SS maybe anti-guidance like stay here NOW as the cable is 22k lbs working load and the end bits look stronger |

maybe but there are 5 of them
and a stage or tent would have 4 not 5 if square like most are and again why so heavy strong and SS construction most stage or tent stuff would be cheaper galvanized and not 22k working load I think it is to hold down something very securely |

So that fan shape thing goes in the ground? What are the holes in it for? Any pics of this thing in its entirety?

and the holes in the plates attach to the load but that is a guess there are faint marks by the holes like a missing part lapped about 1'' over the holes the cables are 32 to 38 ft long and form a 5 sided pentagram maybe an aircraft hold down rig missing the parts that go to the aircraft ? |

Remove all the loose cables, take a straight on picture of that thing with a neutral contrasting background and upload it to google images. It's obviously something well known in the rigging or awning trade, but you just need a good image so google can search it out for you. Be sure to wear your tin-foil hat while you do it, just in case it's an intergalactic antenna.....
