    Turned into. This looks so familiar. Something nautical.

    Looks like a wooden wheel hub.

    That's what I was thinking too, and probably industrial rather than off a wagon. It would have to have been an awfully huge wheel and it's really long for a vehicle hub.

    I suppose it could be a lantern pinion, but I would expect more wear.

    My first impression was African and part of a musical instrument, but what do I know.

    I could see someone with a stick raking it over those bars. How big is it?

    Maybe it's from a toy wagon? I thought it looked rather fragile.
