39, is a double spout cast iron kettle, used in the railways sometimes
41 is a milk expresser 42 is a couple of bench stops
#42 Looks like loose piece for sand casting. The painted part is in contact with the sand and the unpainted part fits into a pattern or corebox (most likely corebox). Loose pieces are used to create parts of the casting that have undercuts.

Not correct but you aren't far off, it isn't for bleeding. They were all marked the same but I've just found out that the two round and flat ones had a different purpose than the longer piece, though they are all related.

Nope
There is just one of this object, shown from two different angles, it isn't a bench stop. It would have been found on a farm.

Nope, that's not what it was marked.

I don't know if farmers often had to remove wagon wheels outdoors, but if a wheel had to be laid on the ground, this could keep the hub out of the dirt.

I totally forgot about number 40, I'll post the answer for it tomorrow if no one gets it.

#40 Spreading plaster?

Negative acupressure things? They'd swish a candle or long match around the inside, and put them on acupressure points, and as the air inside cools, it contracts, applying negative pressure to the point?
I guess it could suck out bad chi or something. ;-)
Thanks, Rich
Nope, that's not it.
