I'm cleaning out my grandfather's garage and am curious about a few items.
Thanks for the assistance

and this
and these too
#1 looks like part of a power hacksaw, maybe one of the kits that were sold years ago that made use of a washing machine gearbox to make the sawing action. That's my WAG only.

> part of a power hacksaw...
My WAG is it's a jig for sharpening lawnmower blades....
The second brass thing is the top of some cartridge filter, but there is no way I can guess what for...
The blue thing is an air line water seperator for compressed air. (it's not usable in that state btw;)
The last thing I dunno, part of a propane stove?
Cleaning out the garage is always a sure way to loose some hair headscratching - P
thanks, here is a link to some better pics

Chainsaw file guide?
Welcome to the site "vestsp". The 3rd picture down appears to be a condensate trap for an Air Compressor, that has seen better days. The one below it on first glance looks like it could be a power antenna for a automobile, but that is just a guess.

this is a pneumatic tool of some sort
The pneumatic tool might be some sort of a paint scaler if the 3 blades are hardened steel.
the blades are hardened steel and the ring around them appears to be adjustable for height, i actually found two of these tools
The top picture is definitely a chain saw file guide.
I agree, the chainsaw file guide was completely new to me, i actually found two of these also :)
The next two items are also curious.
(I'm not sure that i've ever seen a carb with a glass bowl before though)
Fuel pumps used to have glass bowls also, and were rebuildable. They were also where you could see them and work on them, not hidden in the fuel tank.
a few more discoveries that i have had time to photograph
a few more
The last one is a sheet metal shear, with the kewlest handle I have seen on a power tool.
Tho the Buck Rogers electric drill ray gun comes a close second ; )
After a long delay, I'm finally getting a chance to read the posts on post-crash Tool Talk. I would be very interested in obtaining further info on all of the drills shown - I don't believe that I've seen any of them before. Thanks in advance!

The first photo in the third set looks like a combination pressure regulator/filter combo.
I see 3 drills. All electric a presume. It's hard to tell. I'm having to view the pictures on my Droid. Are they seized up? Are they for sale?
