Tangled in a tree, probably all winter.

Also got an unusual looking tool or piece of iron. Maybe a brake from a buggy?

Sweet rack TIm! doesn't look to be chewed up either. :icon_thumright: :icon_thumleft:
 
Yep. . . that was a nice rack Tim :o

That piece of iron looks like a ferrier's mallet head to forge iron. . . pretty old too :)
 
Nice deer skull with antlers Tim. Found 2 last month and
the antlers were nawed down to nubbins.
 
Nice rack, congrats! :icon_thumleft:
 
nice score tim, i like heavy metal.
 
Yeah Tony In SC id'ed it as a clamp for table mounting grinders or tooling with. Gotta go with that as it makes sense, being fairly in the middle of the nail bed where the house stood.

It's a real treat to find one of those original homesites because there is no plumbing, no wiring or lighting fixtures, metal window fittings. Just nails and relics. And a few very old very nice coins...

Might actually try to carry that rack out today. Left it hanging in another tree and fairly sure no one else will have found it wayyyy back there.

Unless it was L4S and D-Dub in that little helicopter that did those fly overs....
 
That would make a good hood ornament :tongue3:
Congrats on the find...

Soup
 
Did you go back and get that deer skull?
 
Not yesterday. You want to know where it is? The walk is far longer than the drive....
