you come to the wrong place if you don't want guesses..
it looks like the gear on the back of a honey wagon, the one used to open the tail gate a bit at a time.
Flux capacitor?
A few more clues might be helpfull here. Where was it found at? and what was around with it?
Found in the woods on an old farmsite. Nothing else of note around. The honeywagon thought is a good one but it wouldnt open it very far. I'm thinking this is designed for repetitive up and down motions like a water pump. There I go engaging in speculation when I wanted answers...
You might try posting on www.Smokstak.com forum. It's all about old engines & farm equipment.
Ok...it's very rusty. It's either very large or very small but could be medium as there is nothing in the photo to gauge the size.
My vote is for honey wagon gear.

No there is no reference, the stem (not the piece with gear) is about 18 inches long...
That thar is a woobly joint and part of a thinkumadohiky. sry had to.Transmission.
Windmill parts.
Left handed gear from a spiznog. No doubt in my mind !!
Facta non verba
Im thinking its part of a windmill mechanisim as those were sucker pumps and rotary motin needed to be linear to run the pump.
I believe from your photos it appears to be iron.

The drive mechanism for a hernulator valve. Commonly used on older windlass agitator assemblies.

That looks like the feed pawl from an old hand cranked drill press.Looks like the one on mine any way.
