Shopsmith Accessory

I purchased a Shopsmith with a lot of accessories and the item in the photo I can't identify. Does anyone know how to use this part? There are not any numbers on it.
Thanks,
Doug

Re: Chisel Sharpening Guide Use

Hi Russ, I bought the guide new which included instructions and use it on the main table.
