(First time on the forums, by the way. I thought I'd start with a micro-mystery.)
Not much to it. As you can see, it's quite small - no markings. It's threaded, but just a couple revolutions. It's nonmagnetic and fairly heavy for its size.
At any rate. I can't quite place what it would have been. Any ideas?
(Update: I reoriented the picture because some computers weren't displaying it properly.)
Ever put together any Sauder cabinets? The kind where the wood is made from compressed sawdust? This looks like one of the lock in pieces you use when you join two wood pieces together. The other piece is a round disk shape that has a screwdriver slot, once joined you turn the disk a half of a turn and it locks into the piece you show.
It is not a faucet stem. (i do plumbing work)
It is not a blunt arrow tip. (it wont fit my arrows)
...threads wrong.
Is it brass? Im thinking electrical if brass.
Where did u find it?
I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines. I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.
bigcypresshunter: I'm pretty sure it is brass. It was found in a front yard in Omaha, Nebraska. Coins from that hunt went back to the mid 1940s. (The neighborhood would have been urban during all of that time.)
SWR: I think may have it! (But...I don't know what a "stereo rack leg standoff" is.)
