Its part of something, somehow someway.
My 1st thought something from a drive on scale.

 At first I thought it was a thingamabob but it doesn't have a dohicky so I am at a loss in trying to identify it.

It's a blue coffee cup, partly filled with either cowboy coffee or motor oil, next to some rusty thing.

You might say I have a tool collecting problem....

Could it be 1 side bracket for the foot rest on a recliner?

The square head bolts probably predate recliners. Hide a bed sofas might go back far enough. That said, the hardware is pretty heavy for a bed.

From the wooden part, I would guess it is from a farm implement.

I'm going to say it is part of a planter, farm implement. Been to 100's of farm auctions but never was into the old equipment.
