   It's that kind of thing attached to the doors in order to close them automaticly? It does have a name for sure but my english doesn't go so far

   For holding open a book? Possibly a Bible at a lecturn.

   I think it's a tool to punch holes in a belt

   Its a reedling snafflecruck. It was used by grimple laggers to prepare waxwork books for stressing. They were traditionally made from brass to dissapate static electricity, which actually was not a factor.

   It's an embosser. You put a letter in between the clamps, work the lever to exert pressure, and they press a raised pattern into the paper.

   It clips onto the cover of a book and holds the open page down so the page can be read hands-free.

    I don't know what it is, but it looks like an instrument of torture.

    But maybe Randall is right.

    That there is a hinge for a glass door, such as muffin cases and whatnot. The long metal pert keeps the door from swinging too wide and shattering.

    It's a page holder for books. The "clip" part is attached to the book's cover (usually the back) and the arm is used to mark pages.

    I found one @ a Goodwill years ago and bought the book it was attached to just for the bookmark! Luckily, I like Umberto Eco.

    It looks like a thingie to put the hole in the door so that you can then install a lock (the kind that you put a key into).

    Is is a lock for a glass cabinet. It prevents one glass to slide as it is hooked to the other glass edge.

    If you want to make a tight knot and there is nobody to lend a finger, you clip this thing on your watch and use it as an extra finger to hold the knot down!

    Its a belt knuckle, which is attached with belt strap and voila you have complete belt!! =D

    It's a toilet for midgets with a remote closing handle (midget poo stinks like hell)

    I vote for Reedling Snafflecruck, whatever it does.

    I'm gonna guess bobbin winder - empty bobbin goes in, thread goes through the notch and is wound round using the handle...

    I believe it is used to hold down papers on a clipboard
