Did a small electrical job for a guy at work who's a retired tool and die maker. This is what he gave me in return. I still haven't had a chance to go through it all but most of it is brand new never been opened.

THAT. THOSE large circle drums that have a lever. What are those for? 2nd photo. I have a lot of these tools and they are scattered, unorganized. Old and some are the same. I didnt know what they were all for or how to use them or what they were called. Are those all for die work?

pipe threading dies, if you're talking about the orange/reddish things that look like they have splines

Oh okay, so a large OD you need leverage? Is it for doing plumbing? Cut your pipe to length, make threads, put plumber dope(that i heard it called lol), thread together, make sure snug enough the next guy has to cuss and swear to undo it with a 4 foot pipe wrench?

Had a new rear driveshaft made and the guy seemed impressed that I knew what a 1310 and 1410 u-joint was so he gave me this.
