I had some insomnia last night so decided to watch a little TV. On AMC was
the movie "Colors" with Robert Duvall and Sean Penn. The movie was about
two cops working against gang violence in the late 1980's Los Angeles.
Anyway, in one of the scenes they were storming a house and how did they get
in the front door, you ask? They took one of these "floor rammers" (I
guess) and smashed it against the door lock. It was painted all black with
a phrase similar to "May we come in" painted on it.

I thought it was neat to see something in a movie that was here on the What
Is It? discussions.

FWIW.

That vial has to filled with carbontetrachloride. Probably was held in a
spring loaded device somewhat sensitive to heat. (Automatic fire
extinguisher)
#565 looks like an art deco ice crusher.

#564 looks like a pair of fence pliers with a cutting part and two double
hooks for twisting. Could be early safety wire pliers - for race cars built
in the '20's?

#565 looks like a grinder of some sort - coffee?
