Workshop thermometer?

Would be but it's made of some sort of cast resin. Wish it was Brass, I would weigh it in.

I must admit just lately I have been working in the garage either on the lathe or something else & thought. I've had enough i'm going back to house. Sometimes things flow just great & others ugh. At least I can say goodnight to someone.
