It’s obviously an old-timey pig salter (They new ones no longer use a hand crank).
Lady Helena Handbasket
Something gets gripped in the end that looks like Liverpool cathedral, and then rotates as the handle is turned. Is it a bottle opener?
chaserchap
It’s an ocean speaker. Put your ear up to the conical end and have someone turn the handle and you can hear the ocean! Be mindful of your hair!!
P.H.
The strands of used in making rope in fed in from the handle side. When the handle is turned it twists the stands together making a rope.
Kate
Obviously, given the prize, it is a pig shaver. Simply place the pig firmly into the bladed cone, and twist! Voila! Produces 8 glorious strips of bacon at a time!
finnikins
It’s a rare automatic circumcision machine. Obviously, this machine was banned after the first use, when it was discovered that instead of performing a circumcision, it completely removed one’s manhood.
fredthesecond
It’s a tool for automatically smacking the bottoms of minor criminals in prison in the first decade of the 20th century. (It’s obviously missing the blades with the sharpened steel prongs and broken glass.)
Bobo
it’s a riot police robot prototype, complete with baton and megaphone.
Todd Winkler
It’s a time machine. Just spin the handle fast enough to break through the fabric of space and time, simple.
Randall
This is a rare surving example of Fergusion’s silent smell-a-larm. During the Blitz deaf Londoners were to be warned of impending attack by grinding an extremely pungent aroma.
However, the practice was discontinued when it was discovered that hight raids on London were actually being guided by the smell to their targets.
Fergusan was shot as a traitor to the crown, but in 1974 Parliment recinded the ruling and in a bizarre twist of English law, he was unexecuted and restored to life.

Its a McGonnagle ball Honer, model 1 (or 2) Subsequent models came in steam or electric power. They were used to sharpen the edges of golf ball dimples. This enables the ball to not only fly farther, but have more traction (or bite) when it hits the green. Unfortunately, if the ball has any backspin, that can actually reverse the ball’s direction and cause it to retreat off the green. Honed balls were known to actually injure innocent bystanders. Such was the case at the XXI Haggis Open at the “Auld Course” in Bloodknock. A honed ball actually struck the Laird of McWillie. It took a team of surgeons several hours to remove the embedded ball from under his sporran. As a result, most golf courses have outlawed its use.
Dr Action
Cthulhu’s tentacle twirler. Makes them nice and curly. So he can look good when he goes out on the town. To eat it’s population.
Brainy Brandon
Shame on you,Kate (No 33) on your unkosher answer. This is obviously the tool used by a Rabbi to perform a little operation when adult males convert to Judaism. It was called the “Brith Miller.”

I know! I know! It is a pitching machine from the early 1900′s!!! You see, the one side looks like a batter standing, and the other like the catcher! These people were geniuses back then! Awesome! Bring on the bacon!
Cheezwhiz
It’s an old-fashioned stand mixer. All that’s missing is the whisk attachment.
Sherihelmers
This fine contraption is called the ultimate hair pulley Well little boys use to use it to pull little girls hair with, they never got in trouble because they were not actually touching the little girl, however it backfired when the little girl got ahold of it and tortured the little boy… She got away with only a warning… Couldn’t prove anything.

By gosh, everyone has already posted my thoughts. QUESTION? How do I find the real answer once the contest is over. Neatorama please advise.
Anon of Ibid
You stick the end of a spit in it and use it to turn meat over the fire.
Dave H
Brainy Brandon: I believe you were referring to the RonCo “Bris-O-Matic,” which it does resemble.
Fair's fair
Hmmn, ?s 36 and 52 surely deserve an honourable mention, for doing all the inventing that allowed ? 68 to quote the term originally made up by Gizmodo in 2004?
KnotRough
Well certainly looks like a doweling tool for making chair joints….leg to seat connection and chair back to seat joints.
