2539 Heavy duty drum sticks - maybe for a 44 gallon drum

2543 True Temper Fire Axe Kelly Standard Works - Hunt Pattern 36" one 4 sale here

[Alexander Thesoso]

2544 Guess... Saw set?

[woodchips]

These have a wooden depth limiter that prevents the cut from going too deep, thus taking off too much wood on any single pass to handle.

2543 - a fireman's axe.

chair seat, spoon, etc. Any concave surface. The relatively small radius suggests these were used for small bowls. Note the wooden depth limiter that prevents the cut from going too deep, thus taking off too much wood on any single pass to handle.

2543 - a fireman's axe.

All of the others are probably tools used to tighten fences. :)

[Snag]

My guess too , and I think it's for use with a back saw .

2539 looks like a pair of gouge chisels for hollowing out wooden stuff . Maybe bowls or spoons ?

[Bill]

If this hasn't already been given, the items in #2541 are Fishing rod holders, to be used when fishing--especially off the side of a boat, or equivalent.

One or a couple of these, a portable chair, and a can holder, and you might even forget you're supposed to be fishing. :)

#2540 To prevent a small pan (of about the same diameter) from falling through the pot-hole on an old stove?

[Ed Huntress]

2539 - Look like wood working tools used to cut a round or square groove.

2540 -

2541 - Adjustable fishing rod holders. They clamp on and allow you to set the butt of the rod in them.

2542 - Teeth broken off a road sweeper broom. They make great lock pick stock.

2543 - Kelly Standard Fire axe.

2544 - Circular saw tooth set tool.

[Stormin Mormon]

2539 Amish tire thumpers, for wagon wheels. 2540 Frying pan for high viscosity eggs. 2541 they probably hold the arms, that hold awnings for shade. 2542 probably scraps of stick braze or silver braze. Used for refrigeration work, joining tubing. 2543 Fireman's pick axe. 2544, totally no clue.

Nope

Good job, looks like this is correct

I thought it might be something else but it seems like this is the right answer.

[Rob H.]

Good guess, it is indeed a saw set.

[Rob H.]

Not quite correct but you're in the right ballpark.

[Rob H.]

Nope, that's not it.

[Rob H.]

Yes, I was planning to mention to the lock pick angle in my answer.

[Lloyd E. Sponenburgh]

"Rob H." fired this volley in news: [e-mail]:

look more like tenon cutters. Used with a froe or mallet.
