    I have this lucky bar of cement with hooks in it. It was protecting our electrical wires going into the house but now we’ve relocated the meters and have them going into house a different way. Looks like it can be used as a parking stop. Does anyone know if there is any market/use for this thing? Or should I just lug to dump. I think it’s like 500lbs easy. 58FEF7B6-E685-4C77-93E9-07CD47AB34EB.jpg

    If you tie a body to it then you don't have to worry about it floating up to the surface of a lake :notsure:

    Make a bumper out of it- those are your new tow points?
    Can't wait to see someone pull out in front of you with THAT on your truck!!!

    Throw it in your neighbor's pool to make an artificial reef.

    Looks like she's doing a dandy job of preventing the wind from blowing it away... :D

    I'd just sledgehammer it into pieces and use it to fill a hole in the property.

    If you have any way of cutting it, you might cut it to the width of the Taco bed and use it for weight in the winter for added traction.

    Some states recycle concrete as an aggregate base. Check locally.

    I see you're in Burlington... use it to knock Champy on the head and then you can domesticate him/her and have the coolest pet on earth.

    Bury it up to the eyelets in your backyard and then tie people to it that you need to torture for a while. Just the first thing to come into my head.

    List it on Craigslist as said torture device. Maybe Buffalo Bob will pay you for it.

    Worth nothing, it's one of those things you find on craigslist in the free section with the mattresses, truck bed liners, sofas that need to be cleaned because a girl named Ashley drank too much and shat herself, Chad's plastic cement weight and bench set that's so wobbly that an insurance company rather have you eat three meals a day from taco bell vs. using it, free fire wood you cut down, but must be licensed bonded and insured

    The bed traction block is a good idea.

    Nope one of those things you bust up and haul to the dump. Even if it's free he could end up with some asshole that's friends with a lawyer injuring themselves.
