Hey Mt Pete, Just so you know - I always get informed when you put out a video. I've been subscribed to you for years and every time you put out a video it pops up in my subscription part of my display. Please don't stop putting out your mystery tools videos as they are one of my favorite videos. Later
Lyle I get a notice every time you put up a new video. Never fails. I am in Australia, perhaps it is the USA that is not getting them. When you make a new video next, make a comment to say that you woukd like a survey from your viewers on who gets a notice and who does not. Regards.
My too from Oz. I posted on his Ranty one and even though I am not a Subscriber they appear in the top few lines and I watch more than 1/2 I guess. Similarly I am not a Vintage Mach, Abom, Topper, Vannover sub but they all turn up in my feed as well. Engagement is a big thing and Sub/Views aren't anymore.
He's not banned, TH-cam stopped promoting his channel because the vast majority of viewers don't want to watch a 45 minute video of some old dude emptying a cabinet full of pullers. If he put's it back up at 45 seconds long he'll be back in business. TH-cam is trying to match its completion, and only promotes creators who do that sort of video.

Mr. Pete.I always get notified of your videos.Then watching you a long, long time.And I haven't seen any change Keep up the good work we're still here.

1. cam gear from an automatic barrier as found at site entries and car parks. 4 heat shield, used to protect background objects when soldering or wiping plumbing joints, looks to be made from pumice or soap stone.
Thanks Mr Pete your videos pop up for me no problem this one was about four down on my IPhone. 30 minutes or so old insomnia 2:40 am wed from The Great Red State of North California
Your followers are so smart they have given all the answers before I logged on and had a chance to show how smart I am. Just a note I still get notifications here in the deep blue state of Massachusetts.
Hey Mr. Pete, I (we) appreciate you putting out the video's. It is really good to have your videos to fall back on whenever we may come across a lathe or mill and be able to get answers to questions. Thanks for sticking it out, and I hope you find the motivation to keep going despite the walls put up in front of you.
I don't do notifications that would be overwhelming,,,,, but I always check my subscriptions to see what's new and when you have a new one it's always there....
I think #1 is out of a hydraulic door closer. #3 is for putting the ends on wooden spindles. #4 is a slab of soap stone that you warm up and use for a foot warmer or bed warmer. Thanks Mr Pete.
I have searched, liked, and hereby comment ----- the effort I have put in is the tiniest friaction of your effort ! No idea what the tools are, but I am a patient man ------ I'll wait for the answers. best wishes from the UK
1:26 I know I'm getting ahead of you, but the thing in the blue tub is a nail puller. They're still made. My father had one, and I have one. WRT to being banned, your videos come up in my subscriptions list every time you publish, without fail.
His videos aren't getting recommended to most non-subscribers. He's not banned, TH-cam just thinks most people aren't interested in this sort of thing. And they'd be right. Ah well.
So far I am still getting notified when you put up a video. I will try to remember to search though. Your videos are always worth watching, and I don't want to miss any of them.
FYI I still get a notification of your videos. # 4 is a bed warmer. I have an identical one. It is sandstone I believe. You heat up the stone to warm a bed before heat in the bedroom was common.
#1 is probably the piston from a door closer, fine teeth for the slow close as the door finishes closing. #3 is a round tenon cutter for wheel spokes and such. #4 is a soapstone foot warmer for a horse drawn buggy. Your videos show up in my subscription notices. Keep up the good work!
Sorry to hear you're having problems. I have a subscriber for many years now and really appreciate and enjoy especially the what is series. I have not noticed any unsubscribing by an outside source to your account. Keep up the great videos and remember many , many of your followers rarely comment. Best wishes from the UK.
Thanks for all your informative postings, That Tool is a Wheelwrights tool for putting round ends on Wooden Wheel Spokes, I have on e in my collection of tools.
#1 is part of a door closer, a geared eccentric cam! The spacers on that arbour look like the ones on my Brown &sharpe. 3 is a tenon cutter for a brace. The last item is a soapstone foot warmer no wood stove is complete without one😊
This was on the list of new videos. I always mark the thumb up. 1. = gear rack from a door closer 2. unknown brand 3. Dowel cutter 4. Slate for school work Ron W4BIN
#1 looks like it is part of a door closer. The two different gear configurations control the sweep and latch cycle of the door closer. #2 Could be for an Atlas milling machine. #3 is an adjustable tenon cutter for dowels or wooden spokes. The slide is set to control the depth of cut. #4 Looks like it is a soapstone heat shield for plumbing work. Well, that is my guess for #4.
#3 Iis some sort of rotary shaper/shaper to make dowels, rountenons, spoke ends and so on.....#4 is made of soapstone. I have several that we have used for years as bed warmers (heat on wood stove & wrap on thick towel)
#2 arbor from a small Atlas/Craftsman horizontal mill. I had one but was missing that part and could never find it. That was before the internet goggle. I still receive notifications of your videos.
#1 is the piston and rack for a hydraulic door closer, #4 is a soapstone slab that you would heat up on a wood stove and put in your carriage or automobile for a heat source in the winter.
Just letting you know that I was notified about this video. That appears to be soap stone. I suspect the multi pitch gear may be from a swing door closer
I'm sure that 3 was used to create the dowel ends for chair legs that fit in a hole, 4 I believe is a piece of granite used for measuring with a height gauge.
Number 2 looks like the arbor bar used on my Atlas Horizontal Milling Machine. They made two sizes 7/8 inch and 1 inch arbor shafts. Have both sizes for my Atlas MFC Horizontal Milling Machine.
I have no problems getting all your video notifications, I'm in Florida. 1. All fans need to make sure they are Subscribed and the Bell Icon is totally black. 2. Then go to their TH-cam account, select Settings => Notifications and make sure that the sliders under Your preferences are to the right for Subscriptions and Recommended videos. Even if you have done number 1, if number 2 isn't correct it overrides the selection in 1.
I am assuming #3 is a tenon cutter for making tenons on round pieces, such as dowels. #4 is soapstone but I am not sure what this piece was used for, perhaps a a hot pad for setting hot pans on, and that is just a wild guess.
1. Automatic Door Closer, one of the very old ones. 2. I don't know the brand. 3. ooohhhh! Engles Coach Shop has one! Its a TENNON SHAVER/SHAPER! 4. Soapstone bed warmer/hot pot trivet?
1 is part of a hydraulic door damper. 2 is obviously a milling machine mandrel, but no idea which 3 is a tenon cutter, such as used in making chairs, appears to be one made by Stearns 4 is a soap stone bed warmer. You heat it in the oven then slide it between the sheets. The dust you created in demonstrating the material's softness likely is a mixture of talc and asbestos.
Actually, TH-cam did suggest this video to me. I've been subscribed to several different channels and none of them get suggested as often as videos are released.
#3 looks like the tool used in shaving the ends of blanks to make the dowel pin ends for wooden wagon wheel spokes. The ends that fit into the fellows that make the rims. Engles Coach Shop youtube channel uses them when he builds or repairs wagon wheels
#1 I want to cheat and scan the answers for clues. The complex gear reminds me of the two speed pump jack feature that changed speed automatically as the shaft made its revolution by shifting to the different gear ratio with the "wobbly" gear. The scroll cam feature of your parts reminds me of the Automatic Tool Change drive mechanism common on CNC mills. These ATC scroll cams provided speedy, rugged, highly repeatable mechanical motion to drive complex mechanical functions with a simple orbit motor input. The engineering and precision machining of high tolerance hardened parts were a joy to watch and to troubleshoot when something did wear or fail. Your example wasn't shown long enough for me to grasp its function or to then guess its use or purpose, but it is beautiful to see. Now off to the keyboard bandit answers that might reveal a clue! #2 I don't know the maker, but this would fit a very small horizontal machine where I have little knowledge or experience. I want to guess Atlas or Sourh Bend. You have spent time with SB mills and your reluctance to name the maker is an Atlas clue. I have never seen a #2 morse taper draw tool, but my little Atlas lathe came with a spindle drawbar. I assumed it was for collets. I think it uses a #2 spindle taper??? I have never inspected. Could Atlas have intended to fit their lathes for horizontal mill work? It seems too light duty of a machine, but mine is equipped with a Y axis milling feature. I tried it one time. Way too much backlash in the cross slide and carriage and too little rigidity, caused catostrophic part and tooling failure. I purchased a Bridgeport and never experimented with milling on the lathe again! Pristine milling feature components indicate that previous owner(s) never had milling success on my machine either! #3 A tennon cutter, used before my woodworking hobby career. I am going to guess that its most common use was for making tennons for furniture features like chair stretchers. The casting features and paint remind me of Stanley tools, but other makers did similar features. #4 looks like fire brick. I can imagine many uses, but I don't know its intended purpose, though it bears what appears to be heat scars.
No 4 is likely a slate, used on a building site to jot down sizes and other details, so that you can go to the saw and lumber pile, and cut the wood to fit the exact space it was to go into. Soft, so it was easy to mark, and then a quick scrub down with some sand, a wash with a wet cloth, and it is ready to go again.
Your editorial comments are pretty mild mannered compared to many other channels. Maybe the USPS is a little sensitive? 😉 Keep doing your own thing. It's all good!

I believe #1 is the gear rack from a door closer
#3 is a hollow auger tenon cutter, most were made by Stanley
#4, the soapstone warming device was originally heated with a stove. With the metal bail removed, they can be warmed in a microwave.

1. cam gear from an automatic barrier as found at site entries and car parks. 4 heat shield, used to protect background objects when soldering or wiping plumbing joints, looks to be made from pumice or soap stone.
I think 1 is from a door closer.
Yes definitely, the square or hex shank on each end, and the piston with the one way valve in it.

Tough one this week, Mr Pete. I think 3 is a round tenoning cutter. 4 is soapstone, but I don't know the specific purpose
It's a foot warmer, but I had to creatively Google it.

1 part of a door closer? 2 no idea 3 no idea 4 no idea. An interesting collection of artifacts.
#3 Iis some sort of rotary shaper/shaper to make dowels, rountenons, spoke ends and so on.....#4 is made of soapstone. I have several that we have used for years as bed warmers (heat on wood stove & wrap on thick towel)
I can confirm #2 is the cutter arbor for the ATLAS horizontal milling machine. I have the MFC model.
#3 is an adjustable hollow auger for putting tenons on buggy spokes.
Popular makers are E. C. Sterns, Bonney.
No banning here, all notifications received! Great videos as always, all I had were guesses on these so good to see the comments of others!
#2 arbor from a small Atlas/Craftsman horizontal mill. I had one but was missing that part and could never find it. That was before the internet goggle.
I still receive notifications of your videos.
#3 is a tool a wheel wright used to cut a dowel on the end of wooden spoked wheel. I just fixed a few wheels and put one to use.
#1 is the piston and rack for a hydraulic door closer, #4 is a soapstone slab that you would heat up on a wood stove and put in your carriage or automobile for a heat source in the winter.
#2 is Possibly or Probably from a "Benchmaster" horizontal milling machine. Have a good day Lyle

I'm sure that 3 was used to create the dowel ends for chair legs that fit in a hole, 4 I believe is a piece of granite used for measuring with a height gauge.
No. 3 is a tenon cutter. And a beauty, too!
I always heard the old-timers refer to this as a "hollow auger". It was used for putting the tenons on the end of wooden wheel spokes.
I’m still getting notifications and watching every video 👍
Good morning! Thanks for the videos.
I think item 4 is soapstone. Thanks for the video keep on keeping on.
Number 2 looks like the arbor bar used on my Atlas Horizontal Milling Machine. They made two sizes 7/8 inch and 1 inch arbor shafts. Have both sizes for my Atlas MFC Horizontal Milling Machine.

#3 is a tenon cutter.
Hey there Teach, I get notified that The Man is in the room to spread the word as only he can. Peace
I am assuming #3 is a tenon cutter for making tenons on round pieces, such as dowels. #4 is soapstone but I am not sure what this piece was used for, perhaps a a hot pad for setting hot pans on, and that is just a wild guess.
Looking forward to the answer video!
I don't always get a notification, so I look for you some.
#3 is a spoke tool for shaving down the end into a dowel.
You got me the last one is a heat sheild for soldering .keep them comming !!!!

Long time subscriber. Your videos are always in my feed.
Perhaps No.1 is a vent mover for an air conditioner.
1 is part of a hydraulic door damper.
2 is obviously a milling machine mandrel, but no idea which
3 is a tenon cutter, such as used in making chairs, appears to be one made by Stearns
4 is a soap stone bed warmer. You heat it in the oven then slide it between the sheets. The dust you created in demonstrating the material's softness likely is a mixture of talc and asbestos.
Love this series. I would guess Atlas on the arbor. Bench master used a #7 B&S taper. I no longer get your channel notifications
My guess for no. 1 is parts from a hydraulic door closer. Guess for no. 4 is a soapstone heat blocker for soldering to keep from starting a fire.
1. Looks like part of a OHC door closer
2. No idea
3. Dowel cutter for a brace
4. Soapstone
#3 If you need a snap ring groove in a wooden dowel .
Actually, TH-cam did suggest this video to me. I've been subscribed to several different channels and none of them get suggested as often as videos are released.

I believe the horizontal arbor is for a Benchmaster milling machine
#3 Spoke end Turner for wooden wagon wheel spokes.
Hang in there. Your views are usually spot on. common sense and intelligence are rare these days!!!

#3 dowel cutter.
#4 heat sink for plumbers working with lead pipe.
No clue's but i get notifications from all your video's.
have a great day
#4 is soap stone. My grandma used one as a bed warmer.
I am still getting notifications for your new videos.
#3 is a round tenon cutter
#4 looks like soapstone - not sure what the purpose of it is but was frequently used in laboratories as a worksurface
No.4 has to be the biggest chunk of "engineer's chalk" (ie: soapstone) I've seen, which isn't part of an antique kitchen counter.
You always show up in the TH-cam recommendations I get on the main page when I check in. I also subscribe in case one doesn't show up.

So... This was the original Palm pilot?
