Antique Cast Iron Brown & Sharpe Thread / Yarn Winder Wheel, w/ Hand Crank

Description

I have for sale an antique, early 1900's, industrial cast iron mechanical yarn/thread winder by Brown & Sharpe Mfg.
I know Brown & Sharpe from their machinist tools, but this is an early winder from them, and an usual piece.
If you look at the photos you can see the areas where the coating has chipped away and there's some rust starting. Also, the front-prong, closest to the Brown & Sharpe name, curves in towards the other prongs slightly. I am unfamiliar with these pieces and am unsure if this is an intended angle, or if it has become bent inwards slightly. You can see this in the (12th) photo above and more below.
Size: 26" (Approx Total Length)              20" (Approx Total Height)                    12" (Approx. Total Width)
The piece has some weight to it. I am guessing approximately 40 lbs.
If you have any questions and/or need more photos please send me a message.
Thank You
