It's a giggling pin off a laughing stock.


It look familiar though.

 

[Pudsey Bear]

Could be a tine from a farming implemunt or maybe railway it has a few marks on ti and a good wire brushing might give more of a clue.

 

[gipsy_jo]

it's off a small garden plow

"Is this a dagger I see before me"
....

But for some car parks
"Is this a dogger I see before me ?

Or for old Etonians.
"Is this a fagger I see before me"
Maybe "shagger" as well

 

[Ardachaidh]

I can’t tell, because it’s upside down.

 

[jagmanx]

Looks like brick paving to me ?

 

[Pudsey Bear]

Could be off combine harvester.

If you’ve got a local small museum interested in local artefacts they may be able to help.

It's a finger from an agricultural grass mowing machine. Circa 1940 to 1960. The knife was a series of pointed blades around 6 feet in length. It rode back and forth from a cam mechanism supported on a series of around about 20 of those finger guides. Albion were one of the main manufacturers.

It is a finger from either a combine or finger bar mower. As the Undertaker said, the knife goes back and forth in it to cut the corn or grass. Liken to a pair of scissors, it forms one half of the cutting blade, the moving knife is the other half. They are still in use today, there are about 3 of them to the foot, so a 20 foot cut combine would have about 60 of them on its cutterbar.

Looks like something from the antiques roadshow...an " architectural" piece?

 

[roadroamer]

is it a ground peg for earth of the M/H to use a inverter ????

It's a Cumbrian weather station,
when it's wet it is raining,
when it's swinging it's windy,
when it disappears it's fogy,
when it's covered in ice it's cold .

Wire brush it and paint black, look good and a conversation peace at the fireside, folk buy things like that and worth a few bob, don't tip it.
