It is a Phillips Head screw, yes... but for a skate it is not. Look carefully, there are hints. The hints may not be where you expect them :-)

That would be one dirty lens...

I say it's on dive gear.

It does look to be stainless steel

It looks to me like the screw head is less than 3MM across, and the lathe tool marks are not as smooth as you would expect to see on a camera lens. The whole thing looks like it's less than 3 Cm in diameter, just guessing from the machine marks.

My guess is that it's an electrical connector housing, sort of similar to a BNC or a specialty type, maybe military.
It does look like some kind of interface, where one item mates to another by plug & twist, and the screw is possibly a limit or stop where they twist together, or maybe it holds an insulated contact holder part of the plug inside the housing.

Well, it is definitely desiccated something, but no, not a Yucca. You're on the right track though!

Is that what's left of a big saguaro cactus?
I was going to guess that it was several taranchula nest holes, but see that's not the right part of the photo.
I'm off to bed, so carry on without me.

It is indeed a saguaro "skeleton." You're up Waddy!

I saw a lot of those in Mexico when we were running in the Baja 1000.
What's this? Extra points if you can guess what it's on.


I will check in after breakfast.

Yep, swamp buggy. I knew that there would be some racing fans watching this thread.
You're up.
