move.1. Cross cut saw (Disston PHILA)
2. Tenon saw
3. Three small specialty spanners
4. An unknown crimping tool. I have another of these but I haven't figured out what it is for. The handle clamps closed. It may be for shaping hot iron, or holding various shaped stock for hammering.
5. Two small screwdrivers.
6. Three drill bits, two of them for brace and bit.
7. A steel cube for hammering nails straight.
8. A plumbing clean out snake.
9. A wonderful heavy vice, which unfortunately has some steel broken off so that there are three or four dead winds when changing direction. (PARKER MERIDEN CT. / PAT JUNE / 20, 1954 / EXT'D. [reverse:] PAT MAY 28 / NOV. 26, / DEC. 17 1867 / No. 1)
10. Bevel. I have never had one of these before, although my father has one. (CRAFTSMAN)
11. Some kind of impact drill. Maybe it is not supposed to have a drill bit in it. The other small drill bit is sharpened the same way: to a chisel edge (i.e. one flat edge instead of two chisel edges for drilling).
12. A sawsall blade.
13. A hacksaw blade holder (SKODCO-HAWERA, INC. ELM GROVE VILLAGE, IL 60007)
14. A beautiful two-man saw with handles perfectly intact (they are usually gone or badly broken) and very sharp; nearly no rust. I think this is the best example I have ever seen (DISSTON & SONS / STEEL WARRANTED / PATENT GROUND / PHILADELPHIA / US PAT OFF).

The mystery of the unknown crimping tool has been solved by my uncle Colin in Australia:
This is Judies brother...
your crimping tool is called a swaging tool used for crimping a socket onto two peices of wire to form a loop they also use them on electrical wire
