Putting in a sheet of anything is out; I'd have to go with finisher/breaker for leather straps. Softens them up so they can be bent; right side leave it flat, left side puts in a crease. Maybe useful for horse tack?

I take back my other answers and offer these insights-
Each side has 7 matching different sizes, got that?
The left side has a hump in the middle - the right,
is flat. Do they work together, or are they 2 versions of a similar thing.
It can't be metal going thru it because of the wooden rollers on the bottom - unless it's really thin.
Am I on the right track????

With 9 & 15 above, my guess is it's for making corrugated metal...but the lines are narrower towards the centre and the centre 'wheel' is the highest/deepest so (maybe) this is for corner/90 degree sheets.

(But workers secretely made grubby pasta on it after hours.)

This is an 18th century cloth ruffler, to make uniform pleats or ruffles in clothing. You remove an iron stick from the lower roller, heat it in the fire, replace it, and it makes the whole unit hot. You turn the wooden handle crank to run your cloth or clothing piece through, and the result is beautiful, trendy ruffles for everyone! We bought a historic house when I was a kid and a number of antiquities original to the house came with it; among them, a ruffler like this.

It's a pasta maker, but can double as a very effective torture device.
