Look at what I found today....

Am I hooked or what LOL. I was out Pheasant hunting with my cousin today and tripped over this laying in the rut of an over grown cart trail. Hauled it 2 km back to the truck. 12" x 1" x 3"

Yup you’re hooked.
I’m always on the lookout for metal.

That is mystery metal.

That is mystery metal.

For sure, but what a gem of a find eh. I can remember when I wouldn't have cared squat about it and walked right by. Now it's worth hauling 2 km (uncomfortably I'll add) LOL.

Nice find! It truly is addicting, looking for bits of material that "could be useful." I'm like a rat at a carnival in the scrap metal bin at work (heavy truck shop). That piece of yours was well worth hauling back to the truck!

Check it with file to see whatever it is cast - cut a bit and then put white paper to it - if it darkens it then its cast.

It could be a piece of a pad for a fence.

I just tried you white paper CI test.... works like a charm. Thanks for the tip.

The piece isn't CI. It's steel of some sort.

What's a pad for a fence?

I picked up an aluminum transmission on the side of the road once. That’s when I realized I was turning into my dad,

Hey Craig nice find. Family lore has it our great, great, great, grandmother lost that chunk of mystery steel while traveling through AB in a red river cart pulled by 2 oxen, way back when. Apparently this huge pheasant flew up in front of her so she reached back grabbing the chunk of metal and let fly at the pheasant and got it but never found that piece of steel. Would be very honourable on your part to ship it prepaid to MJ. LOL

So how went your bird hunting?

A total bust, didn't fire a single shot between the three of us. The dog brought us a cripple and ran one down way out of range to get a shot off. Lots of people out but no birds.

The day with pals is well worth the outing and you found mystery steel. I would like to bet it's mild steel give it a small drill or file test.

No complaints from me, it's more of a social event than anything else
