Re: What's Your Most Unusual Field Debris?

I've found some interesting things over the years that make me go, "Eh, what?" or "How do you not know you are missing this?"

So far this year was a pressed bearing like comes from the outside of the live axles on the kit-bot, but with a neatly spun-off churro wedged inside it. The scary thing, other than that they were using churros for drive axles, is that I found 2 of them 15 or so matches apart. Each of the bearings had a partner VexPro 18t sprocket, complete with spun-off churro as well. No one ever claimed them from the parts box.

The time I remember most though is giving the same #25 master link twice to the same mentor. He couldn't believe that I had found and picked it up twice from the field.
