wallfish 16,985 #1 Posted August 16, 2020 (edited) Picked this up from a customer's house just 'cause I thought it was cool. It's a 30" long x 3" D bolt and nut that was going out as scrap. Just assuming it might be from large heavy equipment or something like that. Thought about just hanging it on the wall of the shed for art decor or maybe use it as a front tractor weight.

c-series don 8,665 #2 Posted August 16, 2020 I too would have kept that! I’d definitely hang that up or like you said use it for a front weight. Very cool 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure you hang it at least 6 feet high so you don't bang your head on it! 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ebinmaine 67,274 #20 Posted August 21, 2020 Looks heavy. You need Trina to stop down and move it around for you? I vote for front tractor weight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
