Hey folks: I've emigrated from the IH Board with a specific implement(?) question. I have come by what looks like a belt pulley,... wooden (oak? maple?), 10" in diameter, 3-and-1/2 inches across the face, with a 3-and-1/2 inch hole in the middle (must be an official name for that),... 12 or 13 pieces stacked,... held together with 2 internal/hidden bolts so it can be opened up, fit over an axle(?), and tightened back down/around. The whole thing is in really rather remarkably good shape, it seems to me, but there are no apparent identifying markings; there are what looks like the last leftovers of some painted rings on either side,... one at the outer edge, one around that center hole, another one halfway between along side a shallow groove that seems to have no utilitarian purpose.Not much to go on, I know; but with those clues, does anybody want to take a guess at what I've got,... what it might have come off of,... how old it might be? Thanks for your guesses.
RedTed/MO.
