Set 154
Welcome readers of bookofjoe.com
884. Approximately 10" x 6":
885. The smaller ones are about 2" wide:
886. 12-1/2" long, more guesses on this tool can be found on Neatorama:
887. 7" long, submitted by a visitor:
888. 9-1/4" long, the purpose of this device is unknown:
In this photo, the end is being pushed against a table top:
889. 13" long x 2-1/2" wide, another unidentified tool sent in by a visitor, the center section contains a glass plate with graduations marked on it that range from 0 to 20 at 1 cm intervals, also with marks indicating millimeters. There is an adjustment knob opposite the dial that moves the glass plate and its frame.
The knob rotates very smoothly and the max range of movement of the frame is about 3.5 mm. The dial indicator changes based upon the pressure applied by the frame on the glass plate.
The only markings on the case are" Kirem" and "Koinzidenz - MaBstab" and on the face of the dial indicator it reads "Carl Mahr esslingen aN" [sic].

886. Used to reshape the working end of a drill rod when heated in the forge. It is held in place and struck with a sledge, not swung like a hammer.

889."Carl Mahr esslingen" was/is a manufacturer of micrometers,and other such precision tools.
"Kirem"is a city
"Koinzidenz - MaBstab"translates to Coincidence-Yardstick.Numbers appear to be a model(TYP940) and prolly a serial or calibration number(8376).Only thing I could see was that it might be a calibration tool for dial indicators like the one attached?

No. 888 is used to assemble the DeLaval 03 inflation (liner) into the DeLaval shell. It was my Saturday morning job for years as a boy, and I used the pictured tool thousands of times!

Could you give some more information on how this tool is used? I couldn't find any details or photos of the DeLaval 03 on the web.

889 I have serial no 8374 of this measuring device. We think it might be for measurement of line spectra on film strips based on the lab it was found in at work.

887 - I'm not sure, but this looks like a flechette - a type of dart that was dropped from airplanes onto troops during WWI.
