The round hole offset, I remember seeing some thing

Buick, maybe?

I thought your breadboard answer was very close since the old breadboards
were
used as a cutting board for bread, this device is the same thing except for
a
single slice. So I asked for clarification since I didn't think that
breadboard
was specific enough to call correct.

3008 is the handle of a manual(ly) hammer(ed) drill (star drill) for
concrete or stone. The handle fits a taper on the butt end of the drill,
and the taper extractor is to get it back off again. A small sledge is
used to hammer it, and the flanges on the handle are to protect the
holding hand in case of a miss.
3009 looks to me like an old drop-light cage. ('drop candle cage'?) <G>
3010 obviously a driver for an object that might have both a slotted
cover and one with an offset hole (for security?) I've seen similar

3011 no clue. I can see how it works, and it's only good "on the lift",
but I can't recall seeing any farm or lumbering equipment with such a
quick-release handle on it.

C'mon, Don! The picture CLEARLY SHOWS the punched rim of each hole as
being "toothed" (almost SPIKED), all the better to hold the slice of bread.

A few wild guesses, as usual:
3007. Used for making fresh pasta.
3008. Morse taper chisel handle. Wedge used to eject bit from handle.
3009. Cage for inspection lamp. Missing the working parts.
3010. A dunno.
3011. A handle (possibly one of a pair) for handling the ash can of a solid
fuel fire/furnace/woodburner.
3012. Timber dogs, that's what we call 'em. Never seen the 'T' shaped one.

You have no idea how much a person can appreciates an electric hammer
drill until you have made a few hundred holes with one of those drills.
A tapered bit fits into the drill handle. The key is used to change bits.
By the way, that was an excellent method for teaching someone how to
use a hammer. :)

I don't think that I would call this device a breadboard, which is normally just
a
piece of wood, if you could describe how you think it's used then I could say
whether it's correct or not.

I was playing the fool. In the days of tubes, one would buy a
breadboard to screw down components for an experimental circuit.
Nowadays they use printed-circuit boards with hundreds of holes.
They're often called perforated breadboards.

How about mouse bait? Put in a freshly baked slice of bread. Put it in
a tub where mice can hop in but can't jump or climb out. As they work
to get what little bread they can, the noise and odor will attract all
the mice in the building.

It's a slice slicer. You put a slice of bread in it and use a knife to
cut it in half.

Thanks for the info. I just looked again at the email and saw that the owner
said
there was some text on it that said "99934-2" and "Circle D" but I didn't find
anything when I did a quick search on it.

The Dayton Malleable Iron Works, which became the Dayton Malleable Iron
Company, had a D in a circle for its trademark. It was known for buggy
wrenches and buggy fittings.

In response to the four separate posts seen above: Thanks for the suggestions,
I've done some searching and haven't yet found any further information on this
handle, though I did pass these ideas on to the owner of it. I think that we'll
eventually get an answer for this one.

Posting from Rec.crafts.metalworking as always.
3007) I'm going to make some possibly unjustified assumptions about
this one.
1) That it is a stainless steel.
2) That the inner end of the holes is well smoothed.
If so --it could be to hold cut film (4x5") upright and allow
full access by developer through the holes (probably with
something like nitrogen burst aeration) to be used for
developing, stop-bath, fixing, and washing of the film in a
light-tight tank, or in a dark room.
Is that wood at the bottom? If so, I hope that it is wax
covered so it does not absorb and retain the chemicals for one
of the baths to carry over to the next.
3008) A changeable bit hammer impact drill. The tapered part shown as
a crossbar is the "drift key" to remove the tool, which is
fitted in a tapered socket. Usually used with Morse tapers, but
I suspect that this is a different taper because it is so short.
Probably for drilling holes in concrete, and the rubber handle
protects the hand holding it from most of the shock from the
hammer. (And the mushroom upper end protects the hand from the
hammer during misses. :-)
3009) If it had a bottom, I would think that it is intended to hold
a candle as a form of lantern. (And I guess that one could clip
in there.)
Lacking that, a cage for a petrified snake stood on end? :-)
3010) One end is a straight screwdriver blade. The other is to drive
a special head with a single offset hole into which the pin
fits.
The pin -- and the slug of which it is a part, appear to be
spring loaded and slide into the sleeve of the body, to keep the
wrench from simply rotating around the pin.
3011) Not enough detail and angle of view to really tell about this,
sorry. Perhaps if I had seen one as part of the whole machine,
I would recognize it.
3012) The left three are intended to drive into two pieces of wood,
and to draw them together.
The right-hand one appears to be for joining two pieces of wood
at right angles to a third piece, forming a 'T' joint.
Now to post this and then see what others have suggested.
Enjoy,
DoN.
