These are cool
I don't know what the tools are but the boxes are flints. 1 box is legible to read.

First post: Reamers. Used in light machine work and fabrication work.

Second post: Ladyfingers. A type of prybar. Used by mechanics in various trades. Ironworkers, auto mechanics, etc.

Third post: Spanner wrenches. Also called pin wrenches. Used to be used by auto mechanics, still useful in some industrial mechanic settings. Still used for adjusting adjustable coil over struts used in aftermarket struts, for racing purposes.

Fourth post: Looks like waterpump/heater core hose wire clamp pliers. Automotive use.

Post #9: Matco brand tierod end tool. For servicing front end parts of an automobile. Can be used for other things, as it is a general puller.

First post has drill bits for the little push drill in the fourth post. Murphy, they do look like reamers, but if they came in that drill, they are its bits. I grew up with these push drills, although not that specific model.

Everything else, I either don't know, or agree with Murphy.

I have a portable frame straightener also, maybe will sell after I get it all sorted out, I don't need the body work tools.
