Picked this up for $1 on the weekend. No makers marks to assist with identification. Looked to me like a crab trap or fishing trap of some kind until I started playing around with it and realized that the way it functions, it doesn't seem designed to trap anything inside. What say you?

Unreal mojjax. You could have given me 100 years and I wouldn't have figured that out. Thank you very much. Next time you identify something for me can it at least be a diamond in the rough that is actually going to make me some money?! :P

Thanks for finding that sold listing. I guess I do stand to make a little bit of money on it. Just out of curiosity, how is it that you were familiar with what that item is?
