What does this bench/shelf attach to?

[Poe34]

Hey guys, I bought this at an auction, thought it was just a bench, but it has these screw attachments on one side. Anyone know what it's meant to attach to?

Ayuh,.... Are those brackets, or legs on both ends, or just 1,..??

I'll take a couple more pics, there are 3 legs, each one has a clamp on one side.

Generally speaking those style of clamps on the bottom of the legs are actually normally used on the top of a leg to clamp a "table" top onto.

Take your plywood put it in the clamp and then the clamp becomes a leg.

Im maybe thinking your bench was built to clamp onto an exhisting bench to make a second higher shelf...

Or maybe to clamp said bench to the edge of a deck or dock. Hook the clamps over the edge and tighten then the bench cant move.

Absolutely no idea. Sorry.

Looks like something you would clamp to the edge of a workbench to create secondary storage or to be able to clamp to a ledge like on a boat rail/deck rail or something?

Agree

Looks vaguely institutional...perhaps a way to add a tier to a stage for a band/orchestra, etc?

Good call on instutional. Band or stage definitely would use equipment like that.

Thank you for the responses. Here's a full shot, I'm sure I can figure out something to do with it!
