Monday Mystery, Spring winding tool

 

That's what the tag read, though I'm not sure I can figure out how it worked.
 


Thanks, Dave!

That's pretty cool; it's for winding your own springs:

I can't really visualize how it works without using it, but I'm sure it works perfectly well. From comments online, it sounds like finding the right kind of wire is an important part of it.

Well thanks to you if I ever come across one in a flea market dollar-bin I won't mistake it for a very worn-out grinding wheel dresser.
