Bought a load of reloading stuff at an estate auction a while. Was going through some of it today and I could identify everything but this thing. I can't find a name or number on it. Just lots of angle / degree markings. Can anyone tell me what it is?177799

Looks like a chainsaw sharpening tool to me .

Bucket of junk ,pig in a poke box .....or whoever boxed it up had no idea what to do with it .

Sorry guys, yeah I realized later it was a terrible photo. After looking at it again, I must agree....it has to be a boolit sharpening jig.....you know, to convert wad cutters to semi wadcutters, round or spire points. Either that or a chain saw sharpener. Thanks guys, I think y'all nailed it.

Yeah chainsaw file guide. Not a bad looking one either. Any trademarks or any names on it?
