2277 is definitely a set of blow lamps for soldering. Some of them would
use naptha instead of alcohol, which might account for the sooting on
one.

Stop your whinging
we are a day ahead of you anyway, which would make us two days ahead of the
normal posting

Posting from Rec.crafts.metalworking as always.

2275) An adjustable wrench -- which also looks as though it could be
used as a light hammer without abusing it too much.

And perhaps it could be used to grip something like the
corrugated steel staples designed to hold two pieced of wood
edge to edge for first strike into the wood.

Obviously has a left hand thread on the side near the handle,
and a right-hand thread on the side away from the handle, so as
you turn the handle clockwise, it will bring both parts together
around a center point.

The two long smooth pins are to keep the two halves aligned.

2276) This one looks like a universal key for something like the Ace
barrel locks -- loosen the thumbscrews, adjust the projections to
the right depths, and you have a key to fit a specific lock.
(I've seen versions on vending machines where both the lock and
the key can be re-configured to whatever keying pattern you
need. I guess that the idea is that if something happens to the
guy who fills the machines, all the machines can be re-keyed so
whatever was stolen from the other guy (other than the money)
will no longer work. Almost certainly the dispatching center
has a record of what each machine is currently set to.

Or -- it could be a special tool for extracting pins in a
connector?

2277) Alcohol fueled torches for jewelry work at a guess.

2278) A shear which works on things sticking up through a board
(missing) and pivots around the big hole. I'm not sure what the
small holes are for -- perhaps guidance for drilling the holes
for what is to be cut. It is obvious that the handle is on only
one side of the blade, and the bevel of the blade favors the
down side.

2279) Perhaps the back side of a wooden-handled brush, with the
bristles being the other ends of the brass or copper staples?

Something like a curry comb for critters?

2280) A carrying case for medical samples in small bottles? To be
carried to the lab?

Perhaps for storing radiation dosimeters? (There should be a
re-charger for them there, then, and I see no space for that in
the case.)

Perhaps for roll film.

Perhaps for explosive charges?

Now to post this and then see what others have posted.

Enjoy,
DoN.

I had one, and turfed it as it's dangerous and uncontrollable using
alcohol. Not sure about naphtha. Came from Sears, I think
