This came off a thing that looks like a very heavy C-clamp which clamps to a
bench and has a round hole on the top so you can clamp something about the size
of a 1½" pipe vertical. It's a sheet metal tool, a real oldie. But that's all
beside the point. This type of handle is what I'm interested in, whether it has
a ball end like this one or not (I left the clamp part on so you can see how
it's riveted with soft steel, very clever indeed). But I don't know how to
search for it because I don't know what it would be called. "Yoke handle"?
"Swivel clamp handle"?????
It looks rough because it had been filthy with many layers of paint and rust and
I just bead blasted it.

I can't tell you what the screw handle is called, but I can tell you
that the clamp it came off of is most likely the base for a rotary
machine or a beading jenny, probably a Pexto, it looks a lot like
mine.
