Anyone know what this is?

Help! This came in with a couple of boxes I bought out of a machine shop. It looks like it might clamp onto the bed of a lathe--or some such thing, but I really don't know.

Is anyone out there familiar with this item?

Thanks in advance.

I had no idea, but in true Hank Hill fashion...yup.
