I have no clue as to what it is, but it sure makes for an interesting piece of sculpture.

Looks like a Side Mounted Stratenator, it appears to have Dual Suck Valves and would have come off of a 1928-28 Klopenheimmer.....nice find...Jim

Tines from/for a hay rake or more likely 'baler teeth', for of course a hay baler. Look like they go to a 'New Holland' brand piece of equipment. If they are still pointed they have not been used.

Dinglehopper and Banded Bulbus Snarfblat!

Now, the snarfblat dates back to prehistorical times, when humans used to sit around, and stare at each other all day. Got very boring. So, they invented the snarfblat to make fine music. Allow me.

In case you missed it the first time.

Here are some examples.

See, no real mystery. Stacked that way for shipping or someone had to much time on their hands.

No need to go all 'Scooby-Doo'.
