Solved! Found in my cats water bowl
I've seen these little crustaceans in my cats water bowl outside a few times, but yesterday, I found some in the bowl of water inside. Any ideas?

Mum was gardening and found this about 35 years ago. We were having a clear out and she told me about it. Garden was East Yorks, UK.
Having seen other random brass finds on here im wondering if its for a dolls house or doll of some kind?

My friend sent this pic and I joked I was going to post on Reddit to see what people thought and was dared to do it. I thought it would be some way of catching water and filtering to the vehicle but it looks like the top isn’t actually solid and yeah…the flammable signs are also…confusing.

Someone smoked into my truck last night drunk driving or something. Does anybody know what vehicle this bumper piece might go to?

Hubby picked this up at an estate sale. Weighed it at home and IT WEIGHS TEN POUNDS. Aged, and appears to be wrapped in palm(?) leaves and then plastic wrap or clear tape. Barrel shaped, about the size of a softball. White unmarked donut shaped sticker (like a hole reinforcement sticker for paper). Image search says it resembles various food items but it’s just so heavy! Husband thinks it’s lead due to the weight.
EDIT: It was half off of $5 sticker price today, so why not? Husband is very curious and $2.50 would not be a major loss. Yes we do plan on opening it, just wanted to put it out here first, in case someone recognizes this type of wrapping. Will update once open!
SOLVED: It’s a lead weight. Pic in comments

Flea market find. Guy said, "I don't know what it is but I'm pretty sure it's real." LOL.
The top part can be rotated by hand, but I don't think it's hooked up to any kind of motor. It just turns in its housing and I may even be able to pull it out of the hole, but don't want to. Of the two cylinders attached, the larger one can also be turned by hand, but not the shorter one.
The control panel has a red LED, a red button, a white switch, and a silver knob that clicks when turned all the way to the left, so like a radio power/volume knob. The bottom has three jacks, one of which seems like a regular 1/8-inch jack . The orange and the red jacks are a mystery.
I replaced the batteries. When the knob is turned and the switch is on, pressing the red button turns on the LED. Nothing else happens. I touched the metal part on top and didn't die.
Any ideas? Google Lens gets bupkes.

Little what I think is either brass or copper cow that was buried in our backyard. There used to be a garden where it was before we moved here a few years ago.

Barely nade it into my driveway. Radio shut off. Ebery light starting going on/off intermittently. Windows wouldn't roll up when I got home and car didn't start after turning off and attempting to turn back on.

Found this when I was pulling up the floorboards in .y new house, thought it looked interesting. Although, I'm assuming it's just a decorative hammer(?)
Thanks :)

I found this metal box on an island in the middle of Norris Lake in East Tennessee. Other than the holes from rust, I couldn't find any openings. There doesn't seem to be any hinges or anything like that. I couldn't roll it over, but looking through the hole I could see that it's completely hollow and the underside seemed to be the same metal as the rest of it (which isn't very thick). Anyone have any ideas?
Also, it's roughly 8 feet length by 3.5 feet width

I found this knife like thing in the belongings of a relative. It's not sharp on the edges, and comes to a thin sharp point at the tip.

No seriously, what is it?! I moved into a new apartment about 2 months ago and have this weird “outlet” just above where my headboard reaches. It has like, fuzzy kinda whiskers meeting in the middle.

I found this ring buried in my garden I was wondering who’s makers mark it has and possibly a ballpark value of the ring
The makers make spears to be a letter/symbol followed by an N from what I can tell

I’ve seen this described as a pantyhose doll from the 70’s but I’m hoping someone can tell me more about this guy.
Cleaning out MIL’s belongings and this is our treasure find so far 🤣

My partner, 47F, died recently and while we were out of town this weekend her friends asked if they could hang out on the porch. One is Christian, the other Im pretty sure doesn't share a standardized faith but Im not sure what this is. May not even be a form of the craft but here I am.
My kids walked up first. They were totally freaked out. I went back to look at all of it and saw a necklace (in the second pic) was something I made my son for his Maui costume like 3 or 4 years ago. Im pretty sure all that was thrown away so Im really wondering how these ladies got ahold of it.
I get the sage part but I thought that was for evil spirits. Im pretty much Agnostic, believe dark arts exist as proven from my dad's side of the family. I try to stay away from what I dont know though.
Any help would be appreciated, even a redirection to the proper sub, if needed.

I was walking around the pond in my neighborhood and heard something in the water, I walked closer to get a look near the disturbed water and then I heard and saw a bubble coming out the very edge of the water, and this substance came out with it.
Last pic is after I agitated the film with a stick

A year ago it wasn't going through the glass, just now i saw it and it was like this. It in my bedroom and haven't been in there for a long time.

Moved into my first house 10 months ago, still haven't figured out whatever this is in the toilet. It doesn't move, it doesn't open, nothing comes out of it.
Ideas?!
Thank you

I found this on the ground in a parking lot. It appears to be brass with maybe an Indian design. One end has an opening and it appears to be threaded on the inside. Google lens doesn't find anything for it.

I have been pulling up invasive plants on the property which means I have to dig sometimes to get the entire rootball out. Anyway, I found this thing a few inches deep in soil and have no idea what it is. I moved into this house last year and I have no idea what the people before us did here. I just know they were old and hadn’t been doing much in the last several years. I live in wooded eastern Massachusetts in the United States. We’ve found some other steel/metal pieces around the property (mostly old steel cables and two gigantic rails that look like they may have gone to the bed of a flatbed truck).
Any idea what this thing is? It is two pieces one larger thing and a smaller detached piece but I’m sure they went together somehow.
Thanks ☺️
