I found this piece very interesting, ive never saw one like it.

I am not affiliated and will not be buying it but just wanted to know if anyone had info on pieces like this

And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

It's far more likely a lab clamp for holding glassware than a machine tool clamp.
The jaws don't look like more than 16 ga stamped sheetmetal.
Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance!

Yeah, too light-duty for machinist work. But pretty neat just the same!
