Strange piece.

I think it is a type of saddlers pricking wheel with the stitching wheel and handle missing.

Wow! I can see that being likely, but I’d never have thought of it myself.

All the ones I can see on Google are different from this. The handle is more straight behind the wheel then this would be though it's certainly possible. On Facebook people also suggested automatic candle snuffer, break handle for a wagon and some kind of horse tack. I've yet to find anything like it on the internet yet. Maybe it will stay a mystery. Lol

Great thought. Here is my modern one. Change the wheels to adjust the spacing of the stitches.

There were probably 5000 various designs depending on what the tradesperson was making.

Better test it first

To me it looks like it has something to do with capping old bottles
