What is it?

Recommended Posts

I’ve hand this kicking around my garage for a long time and never gave it a second. Always thought it was an old kitchen stove part. Last night I took a better look at it and believe I figured out what it is. I am putting it out here to see if I’m right.IMG_0123.jpeg.b6b5242d01f8b70eff91debe41ef3334.jpeg

That's a ruler. Specifically a yardstick.

Wrong @ebinmaine.  It is a blue plastic tray - similar to cafeteria trays.

 

Oh.  The rusty thing - maybe a portable boot scraper.  Stick the pointy end in the ground and use the flat side to scrape your boot.

 

Maybe a marlin spike thingy to help linemen with splices?

For pulling telephone wires? Tie a light pull string to it and throw at a pole then pull the wire up with the string?

Googling telephone troy ny 184 leads to a telephone exchange location and current area code.

Its a WWII era missile that apparently was a dud. This is clearly a very dangerous item that would be very valuable to the right person on pawn stars:lol:
