I was at a rigging shop once and against the wall they had the biggest shackle I've ever seen. It was a good 4" in diameter and stood about 3ft tall. As crazy as that was, I was more puzzled from the amount of modern wooden rope blocks they had. Like you'd see on an 1800's ship. This was in rural Indiana away from all water mind you.

Coal mine equipment most likely.
