Help me ID some tools?

Post by discopanda »

Hi all, looking for some help. My dad is very into his lathes and has a Colchester Student and a Myford Super 7 as well as a whole load of other machines. He likes to buy 'stuff' but in one lot, included in the box of goodies are some tools that he cannot identify. Knowing how widespread the knowledge base here is, I wondered if anyone can tell me what the items 1-5 are in the link? Any help appreciated!

Number four is an indexing tool, but quite a complex one compared to the ones I've seen before.

Number three looks like a rotary table, but again it's quite complex as the centre can be put into an offset position.

Looks like they've all come from some kind of specialist machine...but I'm guessing really!
