What the heck is this !

This was found in the large warehouse that all the golf grass cutting equipment lives in.

My boss asked ME like I had a clue, "is this any good? Should we toss it?" I said - no, not yet! I have friends in low places that KNOW this stuff!!!

So - I have no idea - but the wheel spins freely and the little "guide" wheel would spin but not freely.

The heavy ended "blade" is dull - like it would go into soft material.

Right handed spudder wheel hacker thing-ma-bob!
Way different than a left handed model.

You know this because the pictures clearly show when held in the right hand it points down and in the left hand it point up.

That is a very old and crude tool for rolling the tire bead onto the rim.

NO, NO, NO, I was right, I said it first, I get the prize!

HAHAHA
Yea I was thinking the same thing but couldn't find any verification of it.
But makes the most logical sense.

@85Hokie toss it!
