Great find bud!!! :thumbsup:
 

Cool nozzle. . . how big is it?
 

That's pretty cool. You dig everthing don't you? HH

Six inches long and it is threaded for a garden hose. It was near one of the outbuildings at a long gone farm.

Yep, dug everything today. horseshoes, bullets, wagon hitch, barrel hoops, nails, bumper cap, mirror and door handle to a vehicle(s) from 30's, bottles, coins, tools and the like.

But I just kinda fancied this old nozzle the most. Hope to back out the valve, put a new seal in it and get it rotating again, it's stuck in the open position.

Whoaaa!!!!!! :tard:


Nice find, Tim! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I really like that oldie! It has a lot of style. That site looks like it will be a lot of fun for you to work.
 

Thanks Neil, it is a cool site. I found that when I placed that horseshoe in the crotch of that tree and put that old hitch piece inline with it from a branch then followed the line of sight, I found nothing so I went back to where I reckon the yard was....

The farm dates to the 1840's.
