They do, where I worked as a nipper any boots with segs in and any stainless steel flasks left lying about used to get tack welded to the work bench

Blakeys 
I meant rain. Typical Dutch weather.
Believe you call that a shower? Or showery rain maybe?

when you used to buy wallpaper it wasnt printed right to the edge so had to run the trimmer down it cutting about half inch of it either side up to the pattern

The Ridgeley Trimmer Company in Clerkenwell Road in London EC1, also made a wallpaper trimmer of a similar design. I’ve got one in a tool drawer and have only ever used it a couple of times but not for wallpaper. I remember wallpaper came ready scored and you could cut it with scissors or bang it on the edge of a table and get it to sheer of in one go. Then you had a paper streamer you could throw.

Posh wallpaper still comes with a trimming edge. To line up the pattern.
It is hard to find a complete one.

Wallpaper, I'm not Boris Johnson, so it's not an issue.

OOps my bad.
Blame this.
The flat bladed ones I use to hold Bill hooks, slashers and sythe as I dress the blades.
I have some with square notches in the ends, They get used to clamp old style Bit and brace bits in to re dress the tips. They have jaws at differant angles, so you always dress, with a file, so the blade is flat.
The small hammer head looks likes jewlers hammer.
The axe is swedish.
The clamps are hard to find in good condition.

Segs bring back memories of my dad fitting then to my shoes so i could make sparks during skids on my bike in the dark, we had bags of them as dad was a cobbler and he purchased them by weight.

Wear a Dutch cap, it won't keep your head dry though.

The guy that gave me the stuff reckon it’s a cobbler’s hammer?

I appear to have acquired this brake 18 months ago when I purchased my unit. It’s been hidden behind an oil filled welder under a welding bench, never knew it was there until I pulled the welder out today and spotted it languishing at the back. No idea if it any good!!

Not sure I really needed an 8th grinder in all honesty 
, but it was being cleared out and too much of a bargain. That's the excuse anyway.
I have an identical one of these already, and it is one of my favourites - not as refined as the Metabo, but a good solid workhorse.
I probably should get organised and build a grinder rack, but that would just be tempting fate - bound to need an extra slot.
