    It's a fancy jet for a water fountain display.
    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.

    That makes sense. Damn, 14 minutes and it's solved. These mystery posts are always too easy for this crowd.

    OK, how about this? Found with the title "Swizzle spinner".

    Hi Jon:
    This is a cotton picking machine. The spindles catch the cotton fibers and the wrap up on the spindle. On the other side the spindles reverse rotation and unload the fiber. There is a bevel gear on each spindle and the wear is high. The spindles only last a few years before they need replacements.
    Carl.

    I researched something similar and it could be:

    - High Reliability RFID Coil Antenna;
    - Flat Copper Wire Coil Stable Performance;
    - Flat Copper Wire Air Core Coil Inductor.

    If someone found something different, help to solve this mystery!
