Part B of a garage sale

This is Part B of today's garage sale. My favorite piece is what I believe to be a shop made Bow Saw!!! Regards, Lou

Wow.  You did right well.  That looks like a sweet little bow saw; bring us a better closeup.

Lots of good stuff.  That depth gauge, bottom right, is one of those simple shop items that's often helpful as can be.

Questions:

1.  What are those two items in the center, still apparently in their factory display packs: the aluminum-looking extrusions with the two clamping nuts?

2.  Is that item top center in the yellow tray/packing one of those things you screw to the bench with a wedge to catch the board, like the item shown below?  If so, I've got a similar one, which turned out to be a great idea, poorly executed.

Hello, Bill. Thanks for the reply. The extrusions are Bessey K-Body Clamp Couplers / Connectors. My 24" K-Body Clamps just became 4 footers!! At the top in the yellow packaging is a Razor Blade Plane, unfortunately the wedge is made of plastic!! I was jut looking in the garage for a place to hang the bow saw, I will post a few close-ups!  I love the thought that went into this piece, the detailed winding stick, the tapered cross arm, and the curved handle!!Regards, Lou   

 I tried to add pictures with dimensions, but my camera and I are having a disagreement!! The saw measures 13" across the blade, 12" along the handle, and 8" from the tip of the winding stick to the teeth on the blade.
