Looks like a square screw or bolt thread but what of?

I am going to say its a G-clamp, like the ones you use for wood working!

Is it in place or attached to the whole thing?  They are usually fully enclosed and you can't get a photo like that.  It looks heavy and strong...

It could be a vice screw, or an adjuster for a fold out saw bench.
