We found these in an old picnic grove. I thought at first the long object was a hose attachment, but it's solid there's no way for water to get through it. So any idea would be great...
The second one looks like some kind of bit or something at first I thought it was a monopoly piece but it's definitely not there is a small letter "G" on the one end I hope your able to see it. I don't see a lot of wear marks on it so I'm confused.
point looks like a tip they screw onto an iron fence or gate. Other thing looks like some sort of mechanical cog lever, maybe from a lawn sprinkler. Thats my thoughts
Take that back, did not see the dime as a size referance. I believe the point is an archery field tip. they usually screw into the shaft and look very similiar
It looks as though the second item has a left handed thread....usually reserved for parts that attatch to something that spins in a clockwise direction
Welcome, Lem.
Nice picture. Do you hunt Treasure over there in Turkey. Keep posting we are interested in news and pictures from all over the world. SilverSwede:
That part in your first pictures, 3searching, looks like something from the inside of an old sewing machine. Sort of a balance weight, and the shaft part maybe from one also. (blind guesses).
I could be mistaken , but that looks like a left handed thread. Left handed threads are usually reserved for, but not exclusive to, spindles that rotate clockwise, so that they don't unscrew while running.
My guess would be parts from a reel to reel tape machine, vcr, phonograph, or something like that.
As GrantWA said spindle from a peddle. Left handed thread also reinforces this theory.
On a bicycle one peddle is left handed the other right.

That long item reminds me of a stub axle. That would also account for the left hand thread. It appears to have a circlip groove at the thin end. Given its size, maybe off a pram/pushchair/baby buggy or lawnmower?
The other item, I'm sure I've seen on this Forum before.
