>Clueless on this one. The bottom thumb screw keeps a plate that slides into the notches on the wheel. No name on this piece

>Saw set or wrest...Have seen lots like this for use on larger teeth saws but never one with that toothed wheel in the middle. I think it was for smaller toothed saws.The basic one with out this wheel often have early patent dates [from the 1840s if I remember right] though I think they were made for a long time. Again never seen one with the wheel in the center and I think this might be a pretty rare set.....nice find...Todd
