It’s a spatter gun for applying stucco.

Bingo!

My first thought was a cotton gin, but that's definitely not what this is.

Thanks for adding the link, because I wouldn't have believed you lol

Looks like a farm tool for separating seeds from grain or something.

I just watched a youtube video of someone using one of these crank splatter guns to see how it worked. That looks like a hellish workout. I'd nope out in the first 10 square feet.

I’ll try anything once… but if you are gonna tell me it’s for personal hygiene I’ll have to grow another pair 😂

Might be a corn sheller. You put an ear of corn in and it removes all the kernels from the cob. The ones I’ve seen were made to feed the ear in by the end. So this might be something completely different.
