The rolling bench was an instrument of torture used primarily by the Spanish Inquisition. It consisted of a large table, depressed several inches in the middle, with metal knobs set in it. A large roller with metal knobs on it was on one end. Victims would be stripped and placed on the table, and the heavy metal roller rolled on top of them, grinding the flesh.
