The metal strip looks as though it gives a spring loaded action downwards. I wonder if the top is parallel to the bottom for a reason. The nut just on top of the metal strip looks as though it was made to turn. Hmmm, the size of the lag on the end, where it screws into something, suggests it could hold a bit of weight. Hmmmmm......

Odd. It looks like it's just supposed to plane a little off the edge of something, like flooring that's supposed to fit under the edge of a wall.

I worked as a trable wacker in the Nova Scotia melding pits one summer and wore out three wedges until I learned how to do it right. Never clack-slat to the left of the shim break! The brass ones were the best, I had to use the malachite models because I was new and inexperienced. A Prockle wedge, used for calibrating shim-tuckers in the krestining phase of base lifting.
