Obviously the two halves move apart controlled by the black knob. If we had a pic of the part with the pins that might help.

I don't have a picture of the part with the pins.

I can see a 1/2" square socket in the side so it's a jack of some sort? - No not a jack.

Wonder what that hole is used for... Do you attach something through that hole? A square stick or something? Something to do with clay or modelling clay?
