$1 flea market find today. Any idea what this might have been for? I have searched but came up empty.
Thanks.

I use one to lift the roll up doors in our work shop, the doors use a square drive hand crank similar to what you have. You can see one if you Google "square drive hand crank". There are many other square drive mechanical devices that utilize handles like this.
