Re: ??? what the #@%&*!

Well, I am very happy ya'll FINALLY figured this one out LOL....I personally, was going for the pedal of an old sewing machine!!! And the door knocker was a very good guess too :)

I can't wait to find something that keeps ya'll on your toes and guessing :):):) ;D

Re: ??? what the #@%&*!

Looks like there are small pins protruding from the top piece. This would mean that there is something else that would fit onto the square part. Maybe the two that were found fit back to back?

God bless

Re: ??? what the #@%&*!

Yep. Mojjax definately had it pegged. All I did was testify on his behalf and supply a little more evidence to support his case.
