This one is easy.
It's called 'manglebraedt', believe it or not, in danish.
It's used for rolling cloths after they have been washed.
The stick, called 'manglestok' in danish, is missing though.

#42 Looks like loose piece for sand casting. The painted part is in
contact with the sand and the unpainted part fits into a pattern or
corebox (most likely corebox). Loose pieces are used to create parts of
the casting that have undercuts.

41 Medical instruments for bleeding. Apply vacuum to some part of the
body to draw blood out. I feel better already.

Not correct but you aren't far off, it isn't for bleeding. They were all
marked the same but I've just found out that the two round and flat ones had
a different purpose than the longer piece, though they are all related.

There is just one of this object, shown from two different angles, it isn't
a bench stop. It would have been found on a farm.

I don't know if farmers often had to remove wagon wheels outdoors, but
if a wheel had to be laid on the ground, this could keep the hub out of
the dirt.

Correct, as Michael K. also answered, it's a breast pump, the two smaller
related items are explained here:

http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/very-old-breast-shell-blown-glass-with-pontil-good

If you scroll down on that page there are links that show similar pumps to
the one that I had posted.


All four have been answered correctly, thanks to everyone who participated,
hope everyone has a great weekend!

Negative acupressure things? They'd swish a candle or long match around the
inside, and put them on acupressure points, and as the air inside cools,
it contracts, applying negative pressure to the point?

I guess it could suck out bad chi or something. ;-)

It's a lamp. AKA "yellow dog" used a lot around oil wells and rail yards
in the past.


42 looks like a strap on milking stool. Strapped to your butt so you
could walk up to bessie and sit down to milk without needing to carry a
stool.

39 looks like an OLD long board sander.
