Along with a lathe I bought years ago was the item shown below.   I've never been able to identify its purpose.  There's a cutter and pulleys so is obviously meant to be driven.,  Its not a wheel cutter I don't think (there was one with the pacakge, homemade, from the same watchmaker).  The part with the cutter is free to flop about in two directions.   I've asked few guys knowledgeable on old horology items but no one seems to know.  Any ideas on its function?

Thanks for any help you can give.
