Looks like grinding wheel form/radius dresser.

Looks to me like a radius fixture. Either for applying radii to workpieces or to dress grinding wheel with radii. Don't recognize the make though.
Best Regards,

It is an angle and radius dresser for use on a surface grinder and possibly on a cutter grinder. I do not recognize the make. It might be skillfully homemade.

Looks like a J&S Fluidmotion dresser with the micrometer base, or a good copy of one as the knobs look quite different from the ones I've seen. Which model I am not doing to bother to look up without some dimensions. They work well for the usual tangent/radius/tangent dressing tasks, but require a touch of manual dexterity as the combined motions are not driven positively as in some dressers.
I have one but stopped using it because the vertical orientation interfered with the wheel guard on my surface grinder. It was less trouble to get a horizontally oriented TRT dresser than keep unmounting/remounting the guard.

If he doesn't know what it is, how could he possibly come up with a better title?

You really should have put up a more descriptive title.
Something like "Need help identifying unknown metal doodad with micrometer adjusting knobs that might have some metal shop purpose".

Me too hope it will be deleted and the OP gets banned.
Nothing like a good old helpful reply on PM.

I've dressed a lot of radii with one of them. Sometimes on a Bryant ID grinder and sometimes on a Brown and Sharpe #13. I missed buying one for my shop on Craigslist a couple of years ago. If you decide to sell it I may be interested depending on price.
