110(?)5: Telegraph key. Sideways paddles are actually prefererd by many CW operators. Pushing it in one direction sends dots and in the other direction sends dashes.
1118: A plane for the tips of shovel (or other tool) handles?
1121: The business end of an in-store crane or lifting device? Or one of those "grab a toy" machines? It looks like it hangs directly below a double drum windlass. The scoop/claw/hook that would have attached to the bottom is missing.
1105. Like anonymous said, telegraph key. 1116. Some kind of combination lock. 1117. Butter churn works? 1118. I agree with canem,..dowel or spoke sizer. 1120. Meter cover wrench? 1121. Overhead delivery cable trolley.

1118 A tenoner for dowels or possibly buggy wheel spokes. 1120 A valve lapping tool for early automobile engines. 1121 Possibly part of the lowering mechanism for a kerosene chandelier.

1115 (05) - A Vibroplex 'bug', but it only automatically sends dits. The dahs were made manually.
1117. 10" long: [Image] -Parts A, B, and C are connected and move as one piece. -Part D is connected to handle 1, see second photo. -To operate, hold handle 1 with the right hand, and turn handle 2 with the left, 2 will make contact with A, causing shaft C to rotate, handle 2 will next strike B, rotating C in the opposite direction. -Continuous turning of the handle results in a back and forth rotation of shaft C.
