I found this in the woods in Maine. Land used to be logged and possibly farmed. Any ideas?

Is it 2 inches long or 2 feet long?

Looks like an old wagon/cart axle.

I first thought it was an old telegraph or electrical insulator mount...

then changed my mind to a road peg for a stone age Harley... :tongue3:

Diesel;

I"ve seen these same pieces before, and while I'm not sure if it's the right use, they were driven into lengths of round stock them the round end was strapped to a frame and it was used as a roller to load and unload items. If farming and logging were present in the area this might have been the way it was used. Just my guess.

I believe you have id'd it. This one has a groove in it like the one in the picture. It is about 16 inches long from a guess. I will measure it tomorrow. This is pretty cool!!
