Re: What is it? Set 308

1759: looks like an adze, for a woodcarver; could, however, be some kind of boat-caulking tool. If it had more metal parts or nastier wood ones, it could be a welder's chipping hammer... Or, it's a nutcracker. I dunno.


1760: a divider, compass-like item with a center (but no center is seen). It is a lot like some drawing-instrument compasses, but the handle is sideways, like it has to clear some obstacle. Maybe for visibility in mapmaking or mapreading use?


1761: holder for circular-saw blades, fits a pegboard. I want one!


1762: souvenirs of aircraft flight certification?


1763: Guidance tool for working with pachyderms?


1764: the glass item is a vacuum bell jar, the ground surface seals against a greased plate or gasket. The bracket is for holding the top seal in place when you raise the lid, as you must to open the vacuum chamber. It's a good dessicator, if you want to make dried flowers (or powdered herbs).
