I don't always know what my fossil findings are...
As you can see, I have picked up pieces of many sizes.
These come in all sizes... small and thin to big and wide. They have hollow centers.
At first, I was thinking these might be parts of spines from some kinda skeleton...
Now, I don't think so, but don't know what either way!
Anyone... any clue???

At first I put this on the forum "what is this"... forgetting that there was a specific fossil place on this site (new to me)
It was solved with a very specific answer with pics... VERY COOL, you ought to check it out!

I looked, and you had two suggestions in that "What Is It" thread. The answer with the images was wrong. What you have are not crinoid parts, if that is what you have accepted. Crinoid stems do not exhibit the tight spiral form of your fossils. Unhappily, I cannot confirm the other answer you got.

The other post was mine.
My answer was clearly not acceptable.
But I stick to what I said.
