What is this?

[spotfin]

Found this recently and am wondering what it is. A co-worker has a good answer. It seems to be made from some type of metal, and is hollow. Not real heavy and it sinks. Any guesses?

Weight for a Buoy in a body of water. Or a marker.

one of those things you put your boat keys on in case they fall into the water they sink right to the bottom?

LOL,uhh what?It might be one of those weights that were attached to a chain and inside of old wooden windows to help the window go up and down.

Not a window weight- too small and light weight for that. I certainly wouldn't put my boat keys on it! Probassfisher, not the answer I am looking for. Go somewhere else.

I was only joking about the boat keys... but hey, your thread is not really taking off. how about you tell us what your coworker thought it was??
