It's a 5-minute epoxy mixer , but someone mounted the motor on the wrong side.
I think.

I believe it is an original BRAD tip and ferrule machine.

If it is made for pool cues, I would guess it is a ferrule tenon cutter.

Ages ago International Billiards in Houston, was looking for a solution to make fixing house cue tips and ferrules easier. This machine would cut the tenon for an interesting ferrule design, and the tip had a tenon on the bottom that would be tapped into the ferrule. No glue was needed. The tips were made of a hard rubber material and would not hold chalk very well.....hence.........the invention of the BRAD scuffer.

The machine, tip, and ferrule idea didn't make it........however...the Brad scuffer became an instant hit.

This machine cuts the tenon, scuffs the face, and shapes the tip. Another cue maker brought one to a show a couple of years ago and I snapped some pics.
