I'm getting in early this month with my letters for May...
R - is best to describe in two parts; the left part of R is a rusted bolt and welded onto the right, is a rusted metal wall bracket / hook, liked those that were used to hold up the old style curtain pole (many moons ago!).
S - cut from a spring that come from underneath an older style chair
T - was a curious find at the tip, and I still am not sure what they were used for. I found them amongst computer parts, some were alot thicker almost an inch and non-rusted, others were singular and blue on one side and amongst them were different size E's as well. Upon inspection of the thicker T, I saw that they were several T's compacted together and when I picked away at them they separated into more T's....abit of h2o and wolla...rust!
U - is a U-bolt minus the bolt
and
V - has a slight over hang but as soon as I saw it, I just had to have it. It was part of a handmade tightening bracket of some sort someone had made for something, for what? I don't know. It just had the perfect V shape I was looking for. It was joined/welded at the end onto more metal and it was somewhat challenging to detach without damaging but after several attempts and Glen's help, determination prevailed.

Amazing how rusted bits can look so cool
Great lateral thinking, Kim.

Thanks CJ & N! It's been such an enjoyable process...
I love what you keep finding in that rust box Kim - the R is exquisite and the V was made for it hey? The T was a great find too - and no doubt you'll use them in many more projects!
Hi Fiona, yes the 'V' was just made for it, and the T's & E's will find their way into another project for sure!
Must be so much fun roaming around in that rustbox!
Hi M, yes so much fun indeed! It'll be sad when it gets to Z
