Looks identical to the wirewrap tools that were around ~30+ years ago or
so. I still have one as the fine wire is great for making minor PCB
changes or repairs. Never thought to load it with enamel wire as you do.
It would make it even easier to make those changes/repairs.

Remember Vector's "wiring pencil?"
<http://www.piclist.com/techref/pcbwires.htm> You used it to wire a
breadboard with #32 enameled wire. Once you wrapped the wire around a
pin, you applied a soldering iron and solder, which melted the enamel
to allow a good solder joint.
I still have mine, and used it just a few weeks ago to wire an Arduino
breadboard.
