Free: Two steering gear cases. One has a crack all around the bottom from being worn almost all the way through, the other has a small-caliber bullet hole in it. Both have decent threads and neither are egg-shaped from being dropped, these are almost too good to throw in the scrap pile. They are yours if you pay shipping.

If you have a can to put them in, add brass keys, pins. clips, cord prongs, thrust washers, and ANYTHING brass. Soon it will be a larger can and then a bucket and then and in a year you will be amazed by how much brass is overlooked. Every year I turn in the brass and come home with the cash.

These would be great for someone trying to create a fake early riveted column or repairing one.
Especially the one with the hole in it since it probably will get covered up.
If you can make it work, great. If you ruin it, I hope you will have learned something.
Just a thought.
