We collect Spinning wheels and can't figure how it would be apart of one..., The way the spring is attached it couldn't have much movement...

Yeah me too, Can't find anything on line that would use this... The lady at the antique store where we bout it for $2 was clueless... My Wife liked it because it was different... but can't figure it out, lol...

I'm guessing it's for lifting canning jars out of the pot.

I was leaning toward that, but can't find any photos of one close to this design ...

Dosen't separate like a harness or yoke each end is permanently fastend...

If the spring wasn't broken, what would it be doing?

Looks like the top bar mounts to something and the other end applies pressure.

I agree. I think it's a folding leg of some sort. Maybe from a cabinet or door mounted ironing board? Art easel?
