The 3 rollers around the outside are on upside down. Yes they are. Whoever disassembled and reassembled the tool goofed. But that mistake does not hide what the tool is. |

If I put all these hints together... I can guess: This tool is for sealing the lid on canned potatoes. ??? |

Or possibly used on Cannery Row for lidding tins of fish? "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

That would be my guess DG and even potatoes Johnny. LOL I take canned potatoes camping Johnny. But I haven't seen one like that before. |
