Pic 003 are of old style wood clamps. I've seen them before and several wi=
th a small board, with a hole drilled partially into it, to be place at the=
end of the threaded tightening rod. The small board is a clamping face, r=
ather than having the rod make contact with the project's stock.
At one time, I thought about making a few.... referencing pics on my comput=
er, taken long ago.

In pic 018, there are a couple of JB Addis style chisels (as per the handle=
s). Addis put his name on his chisels. Ward & Payne put the Addis name o=
n the chisels, after W&P bought Addis (after his death). The difference be=
tween an original Addis and a W&P Addis, W&P put their mark (cross hammers =
and anvil) just below the ferrule (on the chisel blade next to the Addis na=
me). I would think the handles on an original Addis would have a much dar=
ker patina, than those in the pic. I have some W&P Addis chisels and the h=
andles are darker, than those in the pic. It'd be nice to check them out=
, though, just in case.
As to John's reference to pic 22, I've never seen one of those.
