Oh, Bird...I love it.

On another forum, unidentified parts are generally assumed to be from cream separators.  Maybe these are cream cheese separators.

This one brings up a question for me. Is there a difference between "machine scrapers", and what I've always called bearing scrapers? Bearing scrapers here as in, for babbit, and I'm taking machine scrapers to be for hand scraping machine ways

The location of the sharp edge! I posted in another thread of the WW2 vintage bearing scrapers I have. The machine way scraper I have looks like some of these in this thread.

There are three common types of engineers's scraper: flat, half found and triangular...

Anything else is a variation on one of these types....
