#472: profile gauge??
#473: the end of a fluorescent tube
#474: a type of needle scaler?
#475: hole saw.
#476: can opener? hose cutter?
#477: another descaler?


476 Can opener
477 Carding tool. Believe used in the process of making wool into
thread
or yarn.

No, it's a wool comb, not a card. Used for aligning the wool fibers
for making worsted yarn (the smooth stuff) instead of woolen yarn
(the fuzzy stuff you're more used to). Cards do the woolen thing.


Well, at least I was in the right church, just hadn't found the right pew
yet.
