Not sure if this belongs here or not, so if it needs to be moved. This is an item I picked at GoodWill today. I have no idea how I'll use it in my haunt yet. Iwas wondering if anyone knows what it is. It was orginally brass colored, i believe. The base has four up the slots for it to slip out the bottom. Underneath this metal plate is a piecfeet that are of a head in what looks to me to be an egytian headdress. The picture of the feet/heads is not the clearest. The one showing the inside shows a three spoked wheel. There is another one on the bottom. They are concave with the outer rim half an inch lower than the center. The metal bottom you see in the picture appears original, as there are two slots cut in the round conical upright piece. the bottom plate is sits on the lip and you have tostand it up and match e of wood that does not look original. It has a hole cut in the center that is just shy of being as big as the outer rim of the spoked wheel. This piece of wood sits below the bolts holding the feet on, allowing the two wheels to be screwed together holding everything in place. If you somehow followed all that, I'm amazed. I've actually held and disassembled the thing and I don't know what I just said. LOL I thought it looked old and interesting with the weird shape and egytian feet and all. I'm sure I can find somewhere to use it. Just thought I'd share a find and see if anyone had any ideas. Also found a square form chair that I think I can turn into an Electric Chair prop. Got both items at GoodWill for 7.00 total.
