Help identifying this holding device?

Can anyone tell me what this holding device is? I'm sure its something simple but I just can't figure out what it would hold and how it would be used. Thanks!

Not sure but my guess is it's a pin vice for grinding hardened rod/dowel to a specific length on a surface grinder.

Is the part with the wrench on it removable? If it is it could be a collet tightening fixture. If not then what Charley said.

Is the actual collet holder a separate piece? Is it internally threaded? Maybe a photo of the collets themselves may help. Just wracking my brain!!

Does the collet holder with the wrench come out of the stand to be used in a machine?

Don, yes the wrench assy with the collet comes out of that stand and appears to go in a machine. I'll get some more detailed pics of it tomorrow.

Check to see if the bottom of the collets have a square, could be a tap holder ???
