Photo 2 is the gears in a hand cranked egg beater. #4 could be a wall mounted candle holder. #5 is the screw in a cider press. post not so close up pix of the rest & I'll try to ID them.

Can you wait a couple of months? I have to go back ten years in time in Mr. Peabody's Way Back Machine

Great shooting, Joe. One of my favorite things to do is explore antique malls. I'm a sucker for things that have gears, like you show here.

That's a very interesting collection of discards.
I spent more time looking at these than I typically do with my birds.

Excellent photographs, joe. I have no idea what these implements are, but I agree with the person who says that some of them may be an egg beater or similar appliance, and one of them says right on at that it is a grater.

I have no mechanical aptitude, so these geary things always draw me in

These places were always great for me on a rainy day

One time I came across an elderly gentleman who was showing his antique fan collection at a local pond festival, and the things he had were amazing 🥇 Even saw a collection of pig-oilers at the same place

Interesting series of antique food equipment. We still have some of those cranking beaters and mixers that we got from great grandma.

I rarely know what they are, but I sure love their designs. Thanks for stopping by, Jim
