It would make sense. My first thought was a large mower when I heard the story. I once saw one throw a (~300g) chuck of metal nearly 100 metres and end up going through the rear window of a car in an adjacent car park. It was just a miracle that it didn't hit someone.

Hi, Did I hear "Wood Chipper"? Case closed. There was a wood chipper working outside, audible, in the neighborhood at the time? If something crashes through your window and you hear the roar of the chipper anywhere outside, why would you imagine anything else had happened? Is the family's name Simpson? The "strange looking transition between what looks like a shinier surface and a somewhat rusty looking patch" commented upon is the attachment ridge I spoke of. But the RUST SURFACE alone is sufficient to rule it out. Fresh Fall = No Rusty Exterior. Junk is junk. Thanks. Mark, for finding this. Now I can totally forget about the Bloomington Object. Hey! They already HAVE one (real) meteorite. Sterling K.

Good Day, Folks, Good eye Mark! After viewing the photos of the 'Meteowrong' my vote goes to the industrial wood chipper as the likely etiology of the Would-Be-Hammer.
