Digging The Old Stuff And Some Deus 2s


Recommended Posts


Nice digs. I've never found a skeleton key. I'm all snowed in too and it's been below zero the last few days.

Thanks Rick. We'll be out again by the weekend, huge weather swings this time of year, it's going into the 60s for a while starting tomorrow, it was 24 this morning. I'm done with snow. 😵 Sorry you're snowed out of your places.

Love the old locks. The other thing looks like a draw pull.

At first I thought so too, but it's pretty heavy. Old drawer pulls were lighter so as not to damage the wood or the brass back plate. But maybe this one wasn't hinged... 🤔

Maybe a small door knocker.

Not all of them 😁

Only the clad quarter was dug.  I don't know what the upper RH item is, but it doesn't hinge.  All the rest do.  But jury is still out on yours -- so many things it could be.

Nice brass! 😀

Here's another possibility, and you can get one today, a "faux key":

Could be just a handle to something maybe a lantern of some sorts? Looks like it fit a threaded post.
