I have found the same info on such items also, but no picture of the same machine, all I can figure is it sharpened some type of tool. The closest thing I have found was on EBay under cotton gin saw sharpener and gummer, it was a hand crank type and this machine is a belt driven type.

Thank you, I did not think about cotton gin tools. I will research more this weekend at the cotton gin festival. I had a clue about it being a type of sharpener, but no idea as to what it was used on. Thank you for the information.
