Got the shaft

Not sure - an output shaft from either a diesel engine, a hydraulic motor, don't know what the hell this thing is. I think it's a forklift part of some sort. I spent a few hours today walking around a forklift/crane shop. I was a kid in a candy store, and my camera was hungry; so many things to shoot - mechanical things, controls, pistons, gears - things I know nothing about.

I liked this particular object, and liked the way it converted to monochrome with a nice range of tones. Two days monochrome in a row... uh oh. Am I in a rut? Um, no, I think it's a shaft.
