bakery.

210. Coarse toothed wood rasp.

207

Is the inside threaded ? Looks like a push-in threaded insert.

209

Leadworkers / plumbers bat / beater for shaping lead sheet. I think
this one is used for forming roof flashing into a collar around a
vertical flue or pipe.

Hmm ... 207 looks like some sort of bushing designed to press
into a hole in wood. Perhaps about something like 1/4"
through hole to act as some kind of low-duty bearing, or
perhaps internally threaded beyond the end of the
currently visible portion of the hole.

208 -- perhaps the winding of wire to bind a small hand broom
together? Though, depending on the lighting, it could
perhaps be a rectangular wound spring.

209 -- Perhaps something to shape clay on a potter's wheel?

210 -- no guess.

211 -- ditto

212 -- Some kind of anvil for forming rings, normally clamped in
a vise by the square section?

Enjoy,
DoN.

Close enough, it's an insert nut, hammer-in type, threaded on the inside



208. Narrow crown staples.

They are regular staples, don't know if they're narrow crown


209. Looks to be wooden. I am guessing something used in a

It's wooden, but it wasn't used in a bakery.


210. Coarse toothed wood rasp.

Correct.


211. Sheet metal bending jig.

Nope


212. No earthly idea.

Yes, it's an insert nut for assembling furniture.

Neither of these.


209 -- Perhaps something to shape clay on a potter's wheel?

I'm not entirely sure what this is for, the seller had it marked as being a
"founder's tool", which I take to mean for making molds for metal or glass.
But I suppose it could also be used for clay.


210 -- no guess.

211 -- ditto

212 -- Some kind of anvil for forming rings, normally clamped in

I don't know what this one is, but I believe it was used by a machinist.


Enjoy,

I'll have to get back to you on this one, not sure if it's right or not.

Butter or Ice Cream churn paddle?

Neither of these.

One of the other answers looks more like it was right, but I'll
wait until I see that answer.

I'm not entirely sure what this is for, the seller had it marked as being a
"founder's tool", which I take to mean for making molds for metal or glass.
But I suppose it could also be used for clay.

It was just a guess, based on the overall shape, and considering
that I've never done potter's wheel work.

212 -- Some kind of anvil for forming rings, normally clamped in

I don't know what this one is, but I believe it was used by a machinist.

And it has some kind of marking on the end, presuably the
machinst's own name, and some cryptic marking. I doubt that he bothered
to make it too detailed, as *he* knew what he made it for. And while we
can make guesses, the odds are against figuring exactly what it was for.

Is the cylindrical part tapered? It looks so in the photo,
bigger at the free end -- but that could be a problem with perspective.

Enjoy,
DoN.

It doesn't look like any potter's tool that I've seen. I think the mold
making is a closer fit.

209 - - Looks like a butter paddle. When butter is churned there is
always a little milk left behind
so it has to be "washed" so the butter won't spoil rapidly. A small
amount of water is added to a
bowl of freshly churned butter and worked into the butter to wash out
the milk. Kind of like kneading
bread. But this one looks too worn in the middle for some reason.

The square end of this one is 15/16" square and says "E. Smith. J." , the
other end is tapered and appears to function as a handle.

The seller had six similar tools that he was selling, all marked "founder's
tool". So although it might look like a paddle it was used for something
else.

Buy from you? You can't even spam right.

Item 211 is a miniature sanding block. It is part of a set that
contains several different profiles. I believe the set is still
available.

Item 212 may be a home-made precision straight edge. It looks similar
to one I have in a DoAll Precision Inspection Kit.

I have no idea what Item 202 is, but I am guessing it is some sort of
kingpin or tie rod end reamer.

Item 209 looks like a worn out sand casting mold ram.

This answer is correct.

Sounds like a good guess, I'm still not sure what this one is.

I think this is right.
