Is it rock or concrete?

Is that a hole in the middle, in your drawing?

If it is a hole and it's concrete, then it looks like an outdoor umbrella stand.

It's slanted if the old boy was sharpening stuff at an angle. That's my swag, I know nothing about potters wheels.

Bountyhunter2013, you have definitely found a grinding wheel. If it is in good shape, it is a valuable relic and folks like me use them for garden decorations. Here are a couple of mine, both of which are slightly slanted on the outside rim, because the previous owners sharpened their tools that way, like BosnMate described above. Happy Hunting, Sub 8-)
