Hint, has to do with getting more altitude for a specific application.


A compressed air reservoir?

is it an arial photography mast.

raises up 90 degress in the middle, then the outriggers are strapped to it?

That's it Giles.
It goes up about 75 ft. We made it from a boat trailer, and an air cylinder antenna mast from a TV truck. It can go where a man lift or bucket truck cannot go, and it works great. The camera is controlled by wire from the ground.
Here's a link to a photo of it in use.
Doug's Super Monopod Fb link.
Great guess.

Nope, it is not for cleaning wire...

It is used in the production of wire, yes. I'll need its specific purpose.

We have a winner! It's a progressive-die wire drawing machine. In this case, it's actually drawing cored solder wire.

ETA: Darn, y'all are pretty quick! I thought that one might keep you guessing a bit longer.
