Here it is, our collaboration with the always amusing What Is It? Blog! Tell us what this object is, if you know. If you don't, make a wild guess!
Place your guess in the comment section below. One guess per comment, please, though you can enter as many as you'd like. Post no URLs or weblinks, as doing so will forfeit your entry. We'll have two winners: the first correct guess and the funniest (albeit ultimately wrong) guess will win T-shirt from the NeatoShop.
Please write your T-shirt selection alongside your guess. If you don't include a selection, you forfeit the prize, okay? May we suggest the Science T-Shirt, Funny T-Shirt and Artist-Designed T-Shirts?
There are more pictures of this thing at the What Is It? Blog. Have fun and good luck!
Update: the exact purpose for the item in question was never actually verified, but Rob at the What Is It? blog thinks it might be "a form for a medicine ball." Since we don't know for sure, we are awarding t-shirts for the TWO funniest answers this week. One came from meiao, who said it’s the ball for Mortal Tetherball. Another good one was from Steve Pauk, who said it was a Rubik's globe! Those are both worth a t-shirt from the NeatoShop. See the results for all the mystery items of the week at the What Is It? blog.

A rammer for loading a cannon, the shape serves as a reference as to the size of the ball needed. Should they be using a smaller barrel, smaller segments can be affixed.

That’s a relic from Los Alamos- it’s a plutonium orb last. The strips of sub-critical enriched plutonium are hammered together on this frame to make the core of nuclear devices.

The position and apparent diameter of the center pole tells me that it stands in for the seat post in some fabricating step; possibly the fabricator holds this ball between his knees and having attached the metal seat clamp and rails elements of the saddle. He then glues the leather saddle cut-out in place, manipulates and trims the leather upper and drives in the brads while it's clamped to the ball. It is round so that he can rotate it in his lap.
That's what I think anyway.
I would like a 2XX sized 'Discombobulate - How Many Daleks Does It Take To Change a Light Bulb?' t-shirt in charcoal and would gladly pay the extra two dollars for the voluminous size. If you think that makes me too fat to ride a bike then you would be wrong.
