Next to the rake is something on the ground. It looks to me like an old radiator for a house but I think it could belong to a tractor. Weights or something? Hopefully someone smarter than me will be able to recognize it. Thank you

It is part of an old boiler. It appears to be three sections joined together. The round plate on the right end is a tankless hot water heater coil. The square opening is the firebox.

Thanks. That was my gut feeling. Just sitting next to the rake made me think otherwise. I wasn’t able to get close enough to inspect it

It would make a great counterweight if you could mount it to the 3pt hitch.

How much would you guess it weighs? I could probably take it for scrap if it would be worth it.

I just replaced a boiler with 4 section that size. It weighed 700#, so I'm guessing that one would weigh 450 to 500#.
Around here scrap iron is going for $.20 / #, so maybe $100.
