Townsend Hook is a 3 ft 2 1⁄4 in (972 mm) gauge Fletcher, Jennings & Co. 0-4-0T steam locomotive built in 1880 for the Dorking Greystone Lime Co. as works no. 172L. Townsend Hook is currently undergoing a cosmetic restoration at Amberley Museum & Heritage Centre, West Sussex.
In the late 1870s the Dorking Greystone Lime Co. of Betchworth, Surrey, decided there was a need for steam locomotives to work the horse drawn narrow gauge lines in their quarry. Following on from the success of their 1877 standard gauge Fletcher Jennings 0-4-0T No. 3 (later named Captain Baxter, now preserved at the Bluebell Railway, they decided on Fletcher Jennings products again. Two new engines, works nos. 172L and 173L (later becoming Townsend Hook and William Finlay respectively) were built in early 1880 at Fletcher Jennings' Lowca Works and dispatched to Betchworth by rail. The locos had some issues, such as the wooden brake blocks catching fire due to the friction caused by braking the heavy loads of chalk. This was remedied by fitting of metal brake blocks on both engines. In time other modifications took place such as replacing the original Friedman injectors mounted underneath the cab with new Penberthy injectors mounted on the tanks tops; and also the addition of cabs. Townsend Hook's boiler was replaced in 1897 with William Finlay's being replaced in 1922. In 1937 Townsend Hook was hit side on by a rake of wagons descending under gravity, knocking it eight feet down a ledge, dislodging the safety valves and enveloping the loco in steam. Fortunately the damage was not too extensive and Townsend Hook was quickly repaired. Townsend Hook was eventually withdrawn in 1952 with a broken axle bearing and was placed into storage.

Whether you want a place to hang your favorite plant, a special souvenir or your customers’ coats and hats, you need some industrial wall hooks that grab your attention as well as your scarf. Made out of recycled hardware, re-bar or whatever I have on hand. And like a sexy bra, these hooks look as good empty as they do when they are working.
• Hand-forged steel and re-bar
• Brushed or rusted finish
• Made to fit in with any decor
• Various sizes
Probably one of the most photographed lighthouses around. So here's my tuppence worth. Was trying to get a reflection in the pool bottom left but the wind was disturbing the water too much.
A big rusty hook on the ship canal. A remnant of the days when barges and boats needed things unloading I presume.
A set of Bioshock Splicer hook braces made from scrap sintra. Tossed these together in a handful of hours before DragonCon 2016. Fun to paint!
A part of human nature I do not understand. This house appeared to be a run down property until it was fixed up for sale.
Live and appreciate what you have for now.

Here is another guy from my gym with his hooks in and applying what looks to be a neck crank on his opponent. Ultimately he did no submit his opponent, but instead one on points.
Several of these sturdy metal claws, rated to a weight of two tons, were creaking quietly on their girder-suspended chains. A brand on the hook indicates that it was originally manufactured by FELCO, a Swiss enterprise founded in the late 1940s which is still in operation today as a supplier of gardening tools.
Constructicon Hook!

This "batch" (to say the least) I went with a special spin on Hook, using a custom cast head thanks to Calloway Custom Designs and Shapeways. The head is on a pivot. Hook will form Devastator's upper chest/torso.
