Don’t know what this is..

My neighbor gave this thing to me thinking I could use it. I don’t even know what it is! She said she thought it was a part that went to her late husband’s metal lathe. I’m posting here hoping some might know what it is. Anyone know?

Probably a homemade indexer suited for a milling machine, pert cool.

Well, neighbor’s husband did have a milling machine. He was always in the garage making something. Wouldn’t surprise me if he pieced this together for something to use on either the lathe or the mill. Thanks for the reply.

You might post it up on The Garage Journal – Garage Design & Tools For The Working Man! you should find someone over there to help you identity it.
