What is it (for)?

[dibbons]

Don't tell me it belongs to my hand-crank ice cream maker?

 

[jos51700]

It's clearly some sort of thing.

 

[Locomotion]

lol An adjustable, bolt-on-bumper trailer hitch!

 

[RAT ROD AL]

It"s definitely a two way support apparatus, for some sort of Domaflodge !

What is it made of?

 

[Bodyperson]

Sink support for a pedestal sink? Maybe.

 

[dibbons]

What is it made of?

Cast aluminum maybe?

 

[James Camp]

It's a left handed aluminum covered condensal, the right handed ones are copper plated.....

 

[JDMopar]

Y'all are .....that is clearly a Hickeydidger!

 

[Dana67Dart]

It's an adjustable support for those with ED

Curtain rod bracket.

How long are the sides?

 

[dibbons]

The way it sits now, the side with the large hole is 7 inches and the other side is about 6 inches. Of course, that can change anytime by sliding around in those adjustment slots.

Looks like the bracket from my electric ice cream maker.

I found it in here when cleaning up a little bit.

Then maybe it does indeed fit my ice cream maker (not electric though). Missing the wooden bucket and the canister is all rusty now. Remember using it once as youngsters but that was a long, long time ago.

Screw it to a tree and call it a fishing pole holder.

In all seriousness, I'm with BP in post #6, it reminds me of a sink wall bracket.

not , I put quite a few in , never saw a bracket like that on any of them , might be a good idea tho !

 

[Brad4406]

It looks similar to one of my appliance anti-tip brackets that was removed before having new flooring installed in the kitchen; possibly for an oven.

 

[zkx14]

Definitly an adjustable wall bracket for something that requires a hole and...

Yeh, I got -

Sink support for a pedestal sink? Maybe.

Per Demonic:

Oh sure; now I recognize it
