These 41 Weird Objects Were Total Mysteries Until The Internet Came To The Rescue
“This is an old Montgomery Ward screw drive door opener.“
—U/Bazzofski
“Is the picture sideways? In the YouTube video, the opener is rotated 90° from this. And why would a garage door opener be sealed in between walls?”
—U / Werby
The original poster, u/bloodmeadowsthen replied“No, the picture is not sideways. Great question. It turns out that when you turn this thing on, it lowers part of the wall downwards, and we found a secret storage area. Here is a photo and a GIF of the machine working. My dad took apart all of the drywall to see how it works. There’s a very small bolt at the entrance you can turn, which activates it. Unfortunately, there wasn’t anything in there but some empty shelves. I wonder what made the previous owners think of creating such a contraption, or what they were trying to hide. It’s our secret compartment now!”
