That was my fault there. I typed it for him in the earlier
article pointing him to the dropbox, and either his browser fixed it for
him, or he spotted it, and forgot to correct what I had posted when he
posted later.

No idea what it is but it certainly looks useful

It looks to have side rollers as well to keep a roll of thin
metal neatly packed, so I think that the suggestion that it was for a
roll of thin metal, like that used to make seamless gutters, is probably
right.

To find an *official* name for it, you would probably have to
visit the web site of its maker and find a matching image.

However, I would consider something like "roll server cart" as
sufficiently descriptive -- and probably no worse than many eBay
descriptions.

Enjoy,
