    #4 is definitely a Jon-E hand warmer but it's missing it's red bag. As a paperboy in the 60s who was up at 5AM delivering papers, this was a welcome item in the winter.

    Good morning. Item 1 is a corn tester. In use, the corn husk is peeled away exposing the rows of corn. Then the cob is pressed up against the two prongs. The prongs then align themselves with the “grooves” between the kernels, then the cob is rotated to test for deviations in kernel spacing. The compartment below gage is for corn cob standards and the chart is for allowable fluctuations.

    #2 in a Madison Kipp mechanical lubricator. Could be used to feed cylinder oil to a steam engine..traction, stationary, etc. They were also used in other applications like gas engines, air compressors etc. Any type of machine with a "total loss" oiling system. I have this same model, except it is a single feed-not a double like yours, torn apart on my work bench right now and am planning to get it back together today. Take the top off it and see if you can figure out the geometry of the pump mechanism. One of the most interesting mechanisms I have ever seen. A very clever design.

One of the projects they had us make when I was learning machining was a desktop Arbor Press. It was very much on the same idea as your nutcracker.

    The box looking thing with the ratchet and crank mechanism is a Madison Kipp model 50 probably engine oiler 3 feed. in the old days pretty well everything used them to lubricate the main bearings and the cylinders on engines and tractors. they were available from one feed to probably up to 15 feed. the outlets on the side had a copper tube or line going to their respective location. before starting yoy would crank it to get oil going to the bearings and cylinders. the arm on the other side had a rod going to the side of the engine camshaft usually and kept it pumping wile the engine was running. the screws on top are for adjusting the oil flow by counting the drops per minuet in the site glass.

    #1 Something to do with threads - the inside chart references tap
    #2 Rachet Oiler - often used on steam engines
    #3 Nutcracker? Or a round stock clamp
    #4 At a Bills game I almost set myself on fire with one of those, lol! Catalytic Handwarmer

    Parts measurer, spark generator for blasting, bicycle chain link pin press, hand warmer. And ice pick or punch, hard to tell with the end in a cork.

    #1 is something to check variation of pitch. (just a guess)
    #2 is a mechanical lubricator. I have one on my shear.
    #3 is a clamp for round things.
    #4 is a hand warmer

    No 2 Used to work in fumigation and the vacuum pump for the vacuum chambers had one of these. Manual crank to start the oil until the oil could be seen going up the sight glass then start the pump
    . Ingersoll Rand pump but not sure if they made the oiler or they bought in in..

    1 is a go/no-go gauge for spacing.
    2 is an automatic oiler by the looks of it. Left lever connects to machine. Right crank is for priming/manual pumping.
    I found #3 at a flea market 2 weeks ago. You can't really see it in the video but the base where the screw pushes against is spherically concave and the foot on the end of the screw (missing on his) is broad and cupped suggesting that it is for holding or pressing something ball shaped. Nut cracker would be my guess.
    4 is an old oil burning hand warmer and probably the origin of spontaneous human combustion myths when it malfunctioned.

    #1 - Tap Comparator
    #2 - Bijur brand lubricator
    #3 - Golf ball planishing & burnishing tool
    #4 - Naptha fueled hand warmer made by Jon-E ( Came in 2 sizes )

    #2 is an automatic lubrication pump. Probably a Bijur. On many machine tools. #4 is a hand warmer. And yes, I’ve used many of those too.

    Not a clue on 1 and 2. I have an item like #3 same sort of shape that’s a nut cracker. #4 is a hand warmer. When I was young we couldn’t afford one of these, so we used an old tobacco tin. Made some small holes in it, and put small bits of coal from the fire inside. Worked fine on a cold winter’s night, not unlike a bed warmer.

    1- ??
    2- automatic oiler for some kind of machine like a shaper or maybe even a steam or hit/miss engine? The machine has a link that moves the lever back and forth during its operation, pumping some oil with every stroke or you can hand crank it to manually oil the mechanism connected to the outlet fittings. The lid is where you fill it with oil.
    3- I've seen them but I can't recall the exact purpose and what it clamps. Very similar to clamps used in stage lighting to attach lights to a support pipe.
    4: hand or pocket warmer. I think it's catalytic so you first light a flame (lighter fluid?) then once it's hot enough you blow out the flame and the catalytic reaction keeps it heating.

    #3 looks like maybe a bicycle chain tool, but I don't think the pin is long enough.
    Years ago I figured out that I could shell walnuts using a slotted screw driver. Just poke the blade into the stem end of the shell and twist. Bore often than not the shell will split cleanly along the seam. You can usually pull out two perfect nut halves too.

    #1, no idea but it reminds me of an old indicator. I think #2 is an automatic oiler, perhaps a McCoy that was used on steam locomotives. #3 could be a nut cracker. ??? And #4 is a hand warmer. I still use them from time to time. I was fascinated with them and collected them for a while.

  • @charlesvanvalkenburg7592

    Item #4 looks to me like one of those. old hunters' or fishermen's pocket warmers or hand warmers. I'm going to say that's what it is anyway. And I really like that nutcracker.

  • @ShadonHKW

    #2 is an oiler, possibly a vintage Bijuir? #4 is a hand warmer, Merry Christmas Lyle!

    Back when I was growing up in Minnesnowta and Ohio, number 4 was an essential for winter comfort. Everyone seems to know its a warming device. Looks like Jon-E, but Zippo also made them. They have a felt-like bag to keep them in, so you did not touch bare hot metal.
    Number 2 looks to be an 'automatic oiler' as found on a steam locomotive.
    1 has me stumped. 3 I believe I know, but only 70% sure, so will just scroll the other postings to see what others say.

    Always wanted a hand warmer as a kid........never got one. I'll watch for one at the Restores. PS #1 is a Springback calibration gauge.

  • @willywit2194

    Item one is a comparator gage. it looks like it is made to measure distances between the center lines of 2 bores. I would suspect it was used in watch making.

    1) A screw pitch gauge, 2) A steam engine lubricator 3) A nutcracker 4) a white gasoline catalytic pocket hand warmer.
