34" L x 5.5" W x 5" H. Tops and bottoms are 3/4" Baltic Birch plywood, supports are 3/4" particle board. Holes in the tops only. Very nicely made,
very sturdy.

https://i.imgur.com/CQJeVrJ.jpgLook like a jig or a clamping fixture.
I also found this stamped on the bottom of both units, indicting that they might
not be homemade. (They were hung on the wall via the hole seen in this image.)

I have one of those that's six feet long. I call it a "megafence" and
clamp it to my table saw fence for cutting sheets of plywood.
Those, however, look like they could be jigs for finish routing drawer
pulls (drill work, clamp work on top, route into holes).
Or just something to prop up work on.
Or the handles are for carrying, and the exposed edges are for clamping?

Reminds me of a guy who needed his woodworking shop to be mobile. He
custom built the inside of his work van to accomodate everything he
needed. He made sure to leave tons of space in the center for loading
up lumber and such to take to site.
This is something similar to what he did but his was better. >https://www.thisiscarpentry.com/2011/09/09/the-ultimate-work-bench/

His work table looked a lot like those pieces when on their side. He
could run cables, wires, hoses, etc., all through the openings and not
have them in his way on-site.
Not sure you've got the same thing since yours see, smaller/shorter
but darn close to how his worktable looked. Supports like that made it really strong but still ight enough for him to move around by himself.
2 cents..

the next 24 - 48 hours if *my* clamps leave marks. Maybe the previous owner used them
differently.
