My guesses...which are rather uneducated this week.

1501 - Possibly a tool for making the sort of fencing that consists of
slats held in place by twisted wires.

1502 - This appears to be a clamp or connector for large electric
cables, similar in action to a U-bolt but somewhat fancier in design and
construction. Presumably, this would be used to join high-voltage
distribution lines together.

1503 - Sadistic dental implement. (OK, probably not.)

1504 - Part of a filter, probably either an air filter for an engine (in
which case a foam and/or paper element would surround the perforated
cylinder) or well water (to remove suspended dirt and debris, perhaps
with a wound string element).

1505 - Bomb or grenade casing?

1506 - This appears to be placed upon a board or something, when the
pointy bit can be sprung down to leave a pointy poke mark a set distance
from the edge. I have no idea whatsoever what bigger process this might
be used for. It could perhaps be a can opener of some description, I
suppose, but seems very much overdesigned for that purpose.

Now to read other guesses.
