I'm going to an antique mall this weekend. I'll ask around to some of the vendors. Someone knows what that thing is!
Yard sale find ????

Good luck! And thank you. This is still bugging me too. I'm thinking cheese press now...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who hasn't given up on this thing. Someone must know.

Don't know why, but it makes me think of a classifier sifter. The kind that was used before the advent of plastic classifiers, for gold panning.

I hear ya, this one is driving me crazy. I'd hate to guess how much time I have in searching the net for it.

X3, I do like the cheese press idea. Makes sense.

Delayed but not giving up
I have not given up on this. Having taken out library books on antique kitchen equipment and tools, and the closest I have found was a Creamer for milk.
I have also stood outside a breakfast restaurant in Venice FL asking the older folks (of which I am one) if they knew what it was.
I had a severe hand injury in December and not been able to MD or drive for a while. all is improving and the hunt will continue.
Nice to be back and almost able to type!
Thanks to those that still wonder what this thing is.

Yep. Still here, wondering. As good as this forum is for id-ing old stuff, this one might stand a better chance finding recognition elsewhere; as mentioned in some of these posts. I especially like the ideas of asking the old people! Find the right crowd, and you should get a hit...eventually.

Wow! And it only took 2 years to get an answer. Thanks for solving the mystery.
How in the world did you do it?

Better late than never
I was actually on the hunt for the ID of another item and someone helping me stumbled onto your post (which had been referenced on the post I was on as one of those "unsolved mysteries"). This guy isn't a member but he sent me text telling me what it was so I knew I had to pass along the info!

It killed me not being able to find anything. I shared it on several forums and Facebook groups with no luck.
I hope the OP is still around to see this. He hasn't posted here since May 2018.
