That's a fun bunch. The wood thing with the metal
loops, makes me wonder if it allows to clamp onto
existing rope. Telephone guys have a tapered thing,
they can clamp onto phone wire, and secure it to
a pole. Can't find image on the web. I remember it
well enough, I can probably draw one.

3001, not much clue. Can of welding rods?
3002, maybe a string cutter a butcher would
carry on one finger?
3003, the top V shaped thing might be a corn crib.
The round lower picture is probably a roll for
holding "tootsie roll" hay bales.
3004, maybe a horse shoe for a deformed horse?
3005, no clue.
3006, wood chisel?

3001 looks like a holder for tip cleaners for a guy who's using a big
torch with the same-sized tip all day long (like a high iron weldor).
3002 a lanyard safety release of some kind
3003 cattle feeders... all over this area.
3004 I believe that's a hold-fast for roofing safety harnesses. To be
nailed to a surface or beam through all the small holes, typically on the
opposite side of the roof, with the 'tang' (larger holes) sticking out
above the ridge.

Rob,
You'd have to show me an extreme close-up of that to convince me those are
actual vegetable twigs. I have a sense that they're called "twigs" in the
vintner's trade, but are really fine two-strand twisted iron wire.

Well, I guess I don't really have an answer for this one either, the tool looks
like a wire puller but those are usually more heavy duty, so maybe you're
correct
about it being for canvas or leather.

It's called a mortise chisel. The extra thickness and straight sides keep it
straight when chiseling out deep square pockets.

These are actually canvas stretching pliers as used by artists/picture
framers/conservators etc. Wide jaws to stop the canvas from tearing.

I think you are probably right about them being wire and not really twigs,
though
the owner used the word twig three times in this description, I'll ask him for
clarification.

Good eye! I heard back from the owner who said in the old days they used real
twigs but later switched to wire, as is seen in the photo.
Thanks,
Rob

3005: Time for some imagination!
How about a straightener for arrows or some other wood shafts? Robin
Hood wouldn't have won the contest if he hadn't checked and straightened
his arrows. Too much force will damage the wood. The wedge on which
the spring is mounted could be slid looser to insert the shaft under the
iron at the top, then slid tighter for suitable pressure on the spring.

Interesting theory, unfortunately I can't take a close look at either of the
items
since I don't own them, if I come across either of them again I'll take some
measurements to see if this is feasible.

I thought 3002 looked like something that could grip something flat like
the edge of some canvas or leather if you wanted to stretch it out for
gluing or stitching?
