I was given this. It has factory grooves placed in the material and some predrilled factory holes. What's it's intended use please anyone?

Here are a few pictures of different angles etc.... There is unfortunately no manufacturer name or any identifying numbers or letters. I initially thought some sort of top sat on it or something akin to that. The center hole is confusing as it looks like a umbrellas pole can sit inside of it lol. Maybe I'll do that and use it to eat? If I can't figure it out I was thinking about using it to place my 10 inch miter saw to it as the saw currently has no home base yet until I get my black and decker 425 workmate and pull a hack modification on it. Please keep the guesses coming ppl. I was unable to conduct a reverse image search on my cell to find info as that app won't work for me on my cell for some reason. Thanks again for your help.

The way the "cuts" are at the ends of the red supports, it seems clear that something sits in them and is oriented in a specific direction. Does it look like something locks (twist lock?) into the center hole?
 
Husky X-Workhorse (but you don't have the top).
Good spot bczoom. I was guessing along those lines but thought it was more of a worktable for assembling pieces of cabinets and the like.

Yes, it takes a center post of some sort , and the grooves are for cutting round stuff lol. Handy idea
As someone solved this for me I looked at the advertisement for it on home Depot site and saw a miter saw placed on it so coincidentally that's what I was going to do with it regardless of knowing or not knowing what it was . It also holds 750 lbs supposedly lol.

Well static weight, carefully placed, I'm sure it will support the claimed weight.

But if that weight is dynamic (moving, vibrating, etc) then I'd suggest you might be taking your chances.
