Why in the hell would anybody buy an old rusty gear on a stick? Cause it looks cool, that's why. I must be falling for this industrial trend I hear is hot right now. And I am of course trendy above all else. Acid wash on jeans is still in right? The gear came complete with wooden handle, so I'm assuming it was used to crank... something. I'll guess corn grinder. Farm related most likely, this is Iowa after all. Picked this up yesterday while out looking for a coffee table. Actually saw it awhile ago and have wanted it since. Resisted buying it because... well... see the first sentence. But now it's art! Just haven't decided quite where to put it yet...
