It's called a "baffler"... don't ask me what it's used for
 Actually ... it's used to start threads

Some kind of window-screen tool, to press the screen into an aluminum channel?

My father had a letterpress business and had one of those tools. I don't remember what the purpose of it was.

It's used for quickly measuring stacks (or "lifts") of paper for various print shop and bindery procedures.

I think it works better a s a baffler or thread starter.
I mean really who cares about how many pads you pick up in one go. |
