Coolest find so far! Is it old or new?

[stew1982]

What looks to be an old padlock. Inscribed: Pat. May 93.
Second question why do all of my pictures turn sideways?

Cool fond looks old where did you find it any markings on it. I think I saw one posted just like it a few days ago

Depends what you consider old . Turn of last century

You have to hold your cell phone horizontally to take a pic, or get photo editing software and rotate it.

Your picture file size is too large. If you reduce the size to no more than 1200 pixels for the largest dimension your picture will post in the orientation you want it to. I resized your first picture as an example. And with most basic photo editing software you can crop the picture as shown in the second picture.

Nice find! Your lock likely dates to 1893

Like Smokey said, hold your cell phone horizontally and the picture will post upright when you do your post. If you hold your phone vertically when you take the pic, then when you post it, it's going to post sideways. Took me a while to figure that one out also. Nice old padlock.
