I don't know why but your first picture reminded me of a scene from Land of the Giants

A massive hand and a massive bolt/screw and little people running around. =))

Finds of note in 2022 - You know that thing you do when you pull your pockets out to show there's nothing in there? You get the idea.

That bolt certainly has limited uses around the house. Be warned that when you croak aged 95 the person who gets to clean out your shed will wonder why the hell you kept it! :D ::g

Bronze keel bolt, should not have a stainless washer though as this will cause electrolytic corrosion in contact with the bolt.

BTW these bolts are hideously expensive to buy!
