Dug this at a farm site. No script ther than the number 19. Seems like it would act like a crude carrier bearing...???
I did find some wagon hardware in the same general area.
Any help would be appreciated. 20170425_212040.webp20170425_212017.webp

This piece was permanently mounted via the screw holes. I don't see how it could work in a barn pulley application.

I showed this to my 88 year old father-in-law and he thinks it is a crank support from an old cherry pitter.

BINGO! That's the ticket right there .. Well done, Matt! You get the blue ribbon!

I couldn't have done it without your father-in-law.


Here's to old guys! :occasion14:

I recently restored an old grind stone and these parts are the supports and crude bearings for the shaft through the center of the grind stone.
