It's a cutter but I haven't yet determined if it's for pipe or glass.

Correct.

It's a wrench but as you say, it's not for bikes. It's for a specific machine.

>206. possibly a crimpimg die.

This one isn't a die.

202: This looks like one of many after market tools made to ream the bronze bushing inserts in Model T Ford front axle spindle bodies.

201. looks also, by the last link that its missing some length. The ones I've seen usually handle 3" pipe.

206 is used to magnetise or demagnatise a screwdriver. the screwdriver is either inserted or rubbed along the side depending on what you want to do Russ

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, part of it is missing, probably just a few links.

This answer is correct.

203. could be a hand tool for "routing" the edges of wood. Looks like both end pieces have the same design, the bottom one looks like a blade & that depth is adjustable.

Re: 201,

I install boilers in NYC.

It's a site glass cutter. The site glass is a glass tube that allows a building engineer to view the water, oil or freon levels in various kinds of boilers, coolers, chillers, etc.

It works the same as a cast iron (no-hub) cutter. You place it at the length you want, wrap it around the glass tube and attach the loose end to a catch on the opposite side of the lever. You slowly apply pressure and turn until the glass snaps at the desired length.

Hope I learned ya. :)

This answer is close, but it wasn't made for woodworking.

Thanks for the info. I found one almost just like mine that confirms your answer, second from the bottom on this site:

204 - You say most people would recognize a typewriter, but they are not familiar to an entire generation of children.

Yes

True, but I don't think I get very many children here.
