What is it?

Is it a lazy susan?

No,not that. It's only about 3" in diameter. It attaches to another device in order to unwind the secrets locked within.

Almost,it's not super 8. This came before Super 8 was developed.

What is this? How is it used?

 

[scifan57]

It's used as part of a system to prevent an object moving from where it was left.

It looks like a hook of some description. The hook is low down with the supporting pole fixed to a pavement by anchor bolts.

Perhaps it is a cycle stand.

No, it 's not for bicycles. The object in my challenge is used as a fastening point by objects that move without wheels.

Is it a modern day "hitching" post? Perhaps at an agriculture exhibit?

You could call it a hitching post of sorts, but it's not for animals.
