    I believe #10 is a brace, as in bit and brace. A hand drill is straighter, has a crank and geared wheel

    I have owned and still own lots of these items, the 8 track tape & 8-track player, the reel-to-reel recorder (still works like the day I bought it in 1966!), the slide rule (a real dinosaur from my high school days in the 1950's), the manual typewriter (I have had several, but the one I have now is a circa 1941 Royal portable which looks and works like new), a tank vacuum from Electrolux, a brace & bit which was my dad's, a pocket watch, a Bostitch Stapler similar to that, from the 1950's, a wringer washer (my mom had a speed Queen in the 1950's and her arm was almost broken by that wringer). I am in my 80's. I must admit I have never seen a trouser press like that! Nice video, though, for us old timers!

    I missed the curling iron. Then again, I'm a guy and never had a need to get up close and personal with a curling iron. And I flat out guessed at the trouser press. Nothing at all like the ones my mother had. And the tape recorder was actually a tape deck. The difference being that it's made to be rack mounted and doesn't have an audio amplifier to drive speakers.

    Didn't recognise them all because lots were specific to the US. The 8 track tapes I remember were nothing like the ones shown here, nor the electric razor and I've never seen nor heard of an ice crusher before while basketball wasn't played - and a netball looks nothing like this either though it might have done before the war - while others such as the carpet beater, stapler, hand drill, pocket watch etc are still freely available to buy in the shops today so not even ''old fashioned''. Heck, even the engineering slide rule (the one you showed here which is a lot different to the basic slide rule we used in school back in the 1970s) can still be purchased on Amazon.
    I guessed most of them but the 8 track tapes and the matching tape player are something I've never seen before, we went straight from reel to reel to cassette tapes so guessing it's specific to the US. Oh, and my mother-in-law had a washing machine similar to the one shown (only in white, the only colour I've ever seen them in) right up until she died last year. Preferred them to the modern automatic though personally I hated them, did this one actually agitate or did it just heat up the clothes like my mother's old one did (only that was square and green but still had the wringer on the top, she used it to cook the Xmas puddings in every year because you could fit in 10 at a time and it would boil away for hours). Interesting though.

    @Walkercolt1 7 місяців тому

    From the angle, I thought the curling iron were hedge shears. That IS NOT a Gramophone, that is an Edisonograph. A "washing mangle" only in Surrey, a washing WRINGER elsewhere. I own a grey Maytag wringer washing machine that came with a little two-stroke gasoline engine I replaced with an electric motor in about 1965 for my late Grandmother (I live in their house). It still washes "grubbies" and floor rugs cleaner than clean. I have my Momma's eighth birthday present from Chicago Mail Order Co.
    (Spiegel's) her Aladdin's Magic Lamp-still brighter than a 300 watt light bulb (2000-6500 lumens) when the power is off, "So safe a child can use it!"
    I thought the trouser press was a SUIT press like my Great-Grandma had. For our family, an ice crusher was a 25 pound block of ice, a sharp ice pick and strong right-arm!

    Well I just turned 70 years old and 4 of these items I've never seen or heard of. Two I couldn't remember what they were called - I'd seen them before but never used them. The rest I had either used or seen them used before so I knew what they were.

    #10 in England is called a Swing brace not a hand drill. A hand drill is different here.
    I know because I am old enough to have used one 😅😅😅

    I recognized every single one until I just quit watching because I thought they were way too easy. I assumed this was for a much younger audience. (I'm 69)

      I stayed to the end, just so I could knock up the lot. Was hoping to see something that I didn't recognise, or still own!!!!(most in working order. A chaff cutter being repaired now.) I'm 64. Greetings from Dimboola, in Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺 😊.

    21. you made some mistakes. the phonagraph is a gramaphone, and the drill is a brace ( needs a bit) ice crusher i guessed butter churn, trouser press was the other.

    These are modern items, that have direct more modern versions now…. I was thinking of proper old stuff like a blood letting tool, or a witch finding poker or a nose pickerer or a Bubonic Plague boil severer or a pair of Georgian testicle holders or a Victorian hat pooferer or a gentleman’s sheath made from goat skin or a Henry the VIII constipated turd remover or a electrified thinking crown or a Elizabethan Vomit collector or a Ming dynasty noodle shaker, not a pair of rollerskates me mam would have had!
