Wood and metal whatsit

Last night (Sunday), by next-door brother-in-law BrotherDave gave me a wooden and metal thing he had found while going through a small pile of metal behind one of the sheds. Anyone know what it is?

In shape, it's like a small saw-horse. You can see that I've added my size ten workboot, and a hammer, to give it a sense of scale. Also, the bathroom tiles are about one foot by one foot (30cm x 30cm). The legs are metal, with dried concrete on the lower inch or so (3cm).

Any guesses? Clearly, it was made for some purpose -- probably by my wife's grandfather.

Follow-up, from almost three years later... (Is it cheesy to add comments to one's own posts?) Anyhow, I've ended up using this one a fair bit.

Even has a minor claim to fame:
