    Default What It This?

    Besides bad spelling in the title...


    Was looking at a property today and came across something I haven't seen.

    Condo utility room. 1/4 inch shaft. 6 inches long. The end has two splines on it.

    It's about 5 feet off the ground. I did not attempt to turn it.

    Any ideas?

    It looks to be in a stud, judging by the possible nail pops below it.

    It’s a screwdriver shaft that is embedded in the skull of the victim who is encased in the foundation.

    Congrats- you found Jimmy Hoffa. Geraldo will be calling you any moment.


    Screwdriver or similar shank.
    Seriously though the prior probably drove it into the wall to be a heavy duty hanger.

    Bust the drywall out and let us know..

    Hmmm, it could be a screw driver pounded in to the stud and missing it's handle.

    Well, shit.

    I have broken enough screwdrivers I should have recognised it.

    Good call guys, and thanks. It has been "driving" me nuts all day.
