Bench dog. A wing nut on a bolt through the long oval opening allows it to clamp work onto a bench for drilling, sanding or plaining.

7/10 on the certainty scale.

'The earliest Model A Home had two crescent clamps to retain the reproducer; at first these were held in place by slotted screws, than by knurled screws, followed by instantaneous reproducer clamps. Phonograph Outfits, built round the Home, were available over this period.'
This machine is currently for sale at World of Gramophones

The description fits.

Saw something similar. Was the foot of a contraption (technical term) in another "what is it" post. http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,85623.msg609731.html#msg609731

Not sure what, but possibly made by the Crescent tool company. They made everything from the "Crescent" Wrench to power tools.

Crescent tool Co. combined with bench dog or clamp adds plausibility and maybe moves it up to 8/10.
