That resembles a part of the crank assembly used to start the early autos. Wind it up, hop in and go … hopefully. Push button and key starters are much less strenuous.

I don't think I would use it to buff my car. Foam pads work pretty good. :? :)

I dunno, the phone number of a lawyer you saw on a billboard. Such an item built in as the OP would seem useful if you were writing an opus on the road.

I suspect this may have been an aftermaket option, particularly at Bostitch dealerships.

We moved into house once that came with one pre-installed.
