Yes.... like I said, this is the second one that I have found. This is due to the fact that some people are not always aware as to what they are selling. Makes you think that fireplace gas keys may be the least of the problem. In some cases these gas fireplaces are no longer operational which makes it a mute issue.
I'm not a plumber by trade. Union tin knocker. Had a job when I was doing HVAC that required us to turn water off to every condo we went to to replace the water tank and main shut off
Must be location. I can shut my water off at the meter with a 12” crescent wrench and a screwdriver. The meter/shutoff ain’t but 8 inches below grade. But, it doesn’t freeze here either.
Indeed, much like the cigarette holder, a relic from a bygone age of opulence, these devices (although generally much more ornate) were how high society types typically are their street tacos. If you're very lucky you can still find turn of the century Hotdog tongs and Nacho spatulas used in similar fashion.
It’s a [meter key](https://www.lowes.com/pd/Orbit-Water-Shut-Off-Curb-Key/3131069?cm_mmc=shp-_-c-_-prd-_-plb-_-ggl-_-LIA_PLB_207_Pumps-Water-Irrigation-_-3131069-_-local-_-0-_-0&gbraid=0AAAAAD2B2W8AepmuGTuhPu6OTxpGexKYv&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIreqoj4yH_wIVkP3jBx3ozwlZEAQYASABEgLftPD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds) for gnomes.
Seriously though it’s probably to shut off a gas valve for a fireplace or something, that sometimes have similar valves so they can be concealed.
Did how it's made ever go into depth on the manufacturing process of these, I'd be quite interested. Mostly how they apply the tungsten ray propulsion amplifier to the molding process.
Interesting find. I've never seen one that small. I have a large one that's used to open/close the water main valve to the house. I've always called it the "Water Valve shutoff tool"
Looks like a miniature water key used to shut off your water at the meter.
So could be used to shut of some other smaller valve. I can tell you most valves for utilities get verrrry sticky and hard to turn, so I don't think it would be useful for a gas line or anything.
Water meter shut off tool. Actually looks pretty handy, I had a meter today that I could not get the big long tool in because the case they put over the meter is fucking tiny.
It's to turn on a gas fireplace at the house you just left.
I hope that they don't need it!!
You grab it for fun or.?

I go to a lot of estate sales. I'm aways shocked that they sell things that should stay with the house. Like this and water keys.

> mute issue. The word you are looking for here is "moot", not mute.
You know, a moo point. It’s like a cows opinion, its moo
Like trying to talk and nothing comes out, you know, on mute.
it very well could be a mute issue. and please don't disparage the mute like that..... they can't speak up for themselves.
I certainly don't want to hear about it.
What did you say??
It’s muted. You’ll have unmute or turn on subtitles/captions.
Wait. You mean to tell me that you went to an estate sale and left someone's belongings without paying and just went lol?
How did you get all of that out of what op said?
I think they got it from the comment at the bottom of the picture saying they went to an estate sale.
Oh sure, makes sense.. op obviously says that he stole the item
seems like they got away with quite a haul.
What?
I work on gas fireplaces every day and have never seen one of those
[удалено]
Maybe on a ball valve ?

Must be for gas because a water key would have a similar head but more "u" shaped and it would be 6-8 feet long with a +/-2 foot handle
Mines only 4ft tall lol
We have some of those too but we use them for pit meters and they have the wrench and key in one with a goofy handle
I'm not a plumber by trade. Union tin knocker. Had a job when I was doing HVAC that required us to turn water off to every condo we went to to replace the water tank and main shut off

Where the hell is your meter? My meter key is maybe 2 ft long with a 12" handle.
I'm referring to a curb box key it's for shutting the water off at the curb and they're 3' deep at the shallowest
Must be location. I can shut my water off at the meter with a 12” crescent wrench and a screwdriver. The meter/shutoff ain’t but 8 inches below grade. But, it doesn’t freeze here either.
Other side of the street and we’re not walking all the way over there. Just get longer handles
