#1068 is a camera tripod. The round disc at the one end is what clamps to the bottom of the camera, the shaft is both what attaches to the bottom of the camera, and is used for the leg extension. The bottom rotates to extend the legs to a seated position. When not in use, it rotates the legs up to close.
1068 is a extract hub. Direct translation from arrache-moyeux in french. It's used in mechanics to extract a circular piece that has been push in a conical whole, the wheel center for example. This one seems designed for a particular use since the 3 grips have a special shape.
The first three this week are unidentified tools that were sent in by visitors.
1067. 5" long, text on it reads:"8-2/0", "M&T" and "RM=00": [Image]

1069. This one was found in a second hand shop in Omaha, Nebraska; here is the owner's description of it: It is made of wood, 47-1/2" long, top 11" is 7-1/2" around and the rest is 5-1/2" around. There is a wooden plug (that has a 7/8" hole in it) that goes into a 1-1/4" hole that goes thru to the bottom where there appears to be a marble. The bottom has a 1/4" criss cross 1/4" deep. Inside there is a 1/2" wooden dowel 44" long. Also 4" from the top there is a 1-3/8" hole on one side. [Image]

1070. 50" long: [Image]

A similar tool except that the jaws are angled: [Image]
1071. 3-1/2" long as seen in this first photo: [Image]

1072. 6-3/4" long, for more guesses on this device take a look at Neatorama. [Image]
"Set 194"

1070. Fuse puller
1071. Timber scribe

I'm still researching the first three.
