One side of a jig for holding braces while they are being shaped?

This tool appears to be home made, and and the red (depth?) line 1/3 of the way off the nut is suggestive.

of course it's homemade, and nope, it's not a brace tool and my oudcaster doesn't have humbuckers.

It is a short macaroni holder.
Able to hold up to 4 macaroni.
It is sometimes useful.

I have no idea what this thing is. How about, it's used to screw down the nut that holds the endpin jack on an oud. Either that, or it's something you found in the parking lot at the farmers market last week...:)

It is like the butterfly in Sukar ouds. To tighten the neck to lower the course.
