Fellow was looking at a house for sale on line and it had this picture. We can't figure out what it is so does anybody know? And to fend off the obvious, yes, we've identified the tan stuff at the bottom as a carpet and the boxy thing on the left as a gun safe.

Metal frame that doesn't unfold, a wooden panel or boards and what appears to be some sort of clear covering like plexiglass. Doesn't look like the bent wooden pole on top is attached to the safe but is just sitting there as a place to store it.

Unfinished gun display case?

Static sex swing mount, guaranteed to hold the biggens, rated at 550lbs!

Whatever that metal frame is meant for, it apparently is supposed to remain permanently on the angle it's on as the base of each 'leg' is cut and welded onto the square base plates like it is leaning now.

Reminds me of that frame they have at Lowe's/Home Depot for their saw to ride on though I haven't really looked very close at it.

Frame for a cnc router? Son has one. Could work.

Used to have something similar, not quit as heavy duty,
For a panel saw...

This is my guess too.

Looks heavy, why have a router table or similar tool in the house?

I agree that's carpet and a safe. The other? Some kind of dickthriller I am guessing. Don't know what it is ezactly, but, it turns me on.

Whatever it is, it seems overbuilt.

Some sort of semi-secure display case. Hole near the bottom right for a light or electrical cords.

If you have to ask, you can't afford it.

My first impression was a squat rack or Smith machine, but the wood back and acrylic would kind of get in the way.
Maybe there is something on the other side since the diagonals would brace against a load on the other side..??

Bill board for ads.

Wall. Used for testing the ability of candidates for police or fire to be able to climb over a wall without assistance.

Some kind of industrial/warehouse style headboard?

That thing on top, elephant dick?

The trapezoidal toothed thingy?

Best guess yet.

First off, I don't think that is plexiglass on the back of that wood- I think the light coming through the window is making it look shiny, but it isn't. Just the back side of the wood illuminated. Look at the front of the safe and you see the same effect. Judging by the way the frame is built, I would think whatever it is would be revealed by turning it around. Probably some sort of display or a frame for a work table- the short legs mount against a wall and the other end would need legs attached to support it at whatever height was necessary...

Does the bent wooden rod on top fit the hole in lower right of the panel?

Where do the square tings on top of the gun safe fit?

Y'all got me, that pic was sent to me by someone else so this is all I have to go on.

Giant ant farm they dumped out the sand and filled it with wood to convert to termite farming.

Target stand for long range work.

Milner's house?

Quilting display. The yarn is in the safe.

Seeing pics of actual house might give clue.

My guess decorative man cave room divider/screen. Wood thingy on top probably hangs on side facing wall.

Ok, best guess. That is not carpet, it is a decorative epoxy over concrete. Neither the safe or this heavy object seem to be sinking into carpet.

Maybe we are looking at one side of a divided 3 (or larger) car garage.

On the other side of that wall, we have one of these:



Probably something far less complicated than that, but I sure as hell can't figure it.

The hole in the 2nd from bottom board doesn't make sense. Perhaps access for an outlet, though it seems to low on the wall for an outlet. And surely anyone going to that kind of trouble could have moved a simple outlet.

Interesting idea. What would be the purpose of the paneling then? Probably irrelevant.

Turn it around and use it as a target for throwing axes. Could also be used as a backboard for a game of darts, possibly played with a set of sharpened lawn jarts.

Murphy bed? I've thought about putting one in an extra bedroom for guests.

Step right up, and don't be shy
Because you will not believe your eyes
She's right here, behind the glass
You're gonna like her 'cause she's got class…

I always liked that tune. That guy could sing.

I vote this but not sure what the hole in lower left would be fore?

Looks like it would be a convenient place to stand up your long guns when you take them out to clean and oil. Maybe an old man who can no longer get out to hunt and shoot. Takes pleasure in getting his guns out, lining them up and recalling the memories.
Does look like the floor is epoxy or painted concrete, not carpet. The boxes on top of the safe look like speakers. No idea what the long thing is on top.

Target stand for those who can't hit the broadside of a barn? That would explain its pristine condition.

Medieval torture (stretch) rack.

100 yard target for zeroing Leupold scopes.

Folding bed/wall bed? Climbing wall?

Glory hole partition for midgets

It is a left over frame from a granit job

That hole in the bottom looks ominous.

Had something similar in the basement of a property we bought a few years ago. The couple who had lived there had a small time business making signs and faux stained glass windows out of plexiglass. That one could be angled or laid flat as well as standing vertical. FWIW...?

Big question: can it be removed from the house without using a torch to cut it in pieces?
My SIL looked at a house with a gas furnace that had replaced an older oil furnace. It had a finished basement and the old oil tank was down there, 500 gal. The only possible way to remove it was in pieces. I told her she absolutely did NOT want to buy that house unless the tank was gone first.

Knife/tomahawk throwing back stop.

Boards?
