Found these bronze? door escutchens in a bottle dump. I like the eagle, bowl of fruit, and what looks like a milk bottle or can decorations.

I like the pic of the locks? they have little bottles on them too. What can you share about them? And yes I do know someone crazzy [:D]enough to bring things like items on the stairs, What are they from plows? a-john as a mater of fact brings a lot of lut home, from any job he could [:-]that man would bring home any thing old in the houses he could. doors, fences, wooden collumns, windows , and I think some one on the fourm was building a shop or store and he said I should send they a window they need[:D].The funniest was he went jogging and was running back to the house with a big fallen tree he got out of the creek on his shoulders, down the middle of the street. It looked funny to "outsiders" but I knew what he was doing. It was a good one nice shape and seasoned. Nice to think of fond memories. Thank you for the pics.

tigue710,You are close enough to be right.It is a clamp to hold saw blades for sharpening.It can be mounted on a saw horse or a table edge and holds the blade teeth up so the blade can be worked.I'll try to post a picture tomorrow.Way to go! you win!I will PM you a message. A.J.

Thanks Star and Kim. I haven't found out about the door plates yet but when I first went to dig there, there was a fawn lying on top of my spot - so I gave it up for that day and came back another time[:)]

ok let's confess it now. we bring home everything. we see beauty in something old and now it can be reused. we have so much of this stuff that other people just don't understand. sometimes we have to sneak it in. we become a little obessive about it all. we think about when we'll be able to get it next and the high we get we we find our stuff.may it be bottles, sad irons, something on the side of the road, a box lot at an auction, a find at a flea market or yard sale, curb alerts, freecycle, craigslist, a great local thrift, the joy of finding a new one, need i say more... oh yes the FREE part, we all love free or a good bargin. that's how i get my highs...

now how about you? [;)] DO YOU DRAG ALL THIS STUFF HOME AND SAY YOUR GOING TO USE IT FOR THIS AND THAT and it sits around
and mabe your other half dragged in just as much and your house is full and your yard is starting to look like a junk yard? is your basement too full? garage filled so your car can't go in?
signed,
just wondering as i'm cleaning today...[:D] but, i'll be back got to go tothe local thrift. [:D]
