I didn't have a heavy spoon, so I did the first 80 percent with a small
hammer and finished it with a regular sized one. Seems like it would take a
lot longer using a spoon.

331 What we used to call a "rubber collet" it grabs the part over a much
longer length than an ordinary collet.

Looks like they've all been answered correctly:
327. Countersink, a tool for making a hole so the screw head will lie flush
with the surface.
328. Making a coin ring
329. Patent valve spring compressor, patented Oct. 4, 1921. I didn't know
what it was until I did a search on the patent date and found this page:
http://www.mjdtools.com/tools/list_167/121778.htm
330. Haven't been able to verify this one, when I first got it I thought it
might be one of those personal protection key fobs, but now I'm leaning
towards the idea that it's a small anvil.
331. Spring collet
332. Mechanical grabber, 24" long with a spring and plunger on the other
end.
Thanks to all who participated this week.

327) Some kind of hand reamer/counter bore?
328) You're making a ring out of it. There was a link on this NG about such
a project.
329) A wild guess is a valve spring compressor.
330) A punch of some special type.
331) Collette, exact kind I don't know.
332) The working/grabbing end of one of those flexible grabber thingys. The
fingers extend out when you push the plunger on the other end. Handy for
picking up dropped bolts etc.

#327: Manual router?

#330: Seal punch? Spanner tool?
#331: Collet

Could 327 be a tool for making a rosette or similar pattern on leather?
Agree 329 and 332 are a valve spring compressor and a "Grabit" tool.

Posting from rec.crafts.metalworking:
327) For making a shaped cavity -- in wood, I think. The shape is
wrong for it to be a deburring tool for metal. And, it looks to
be center-cutting, so it does not need a pre-drilled hole to
start it.
328) You are making a ring, with the outer text of the coin showing
up on the inside of the ring. I've known of this for years, and
have recently seen this discussed in one of the fora which I
frequent. I forget whether it is rec.crafts.metalworking, or a
mailing list.
Anyway, you cut out the center, and smooth it nicely, and
finally polish the OD.
P.S. You've got more patience than I had back when I first
learned of this technique. Did you use a spoon, or a small
hammer?
329) Support for some form of workpiece. The T-handle probably
goes into some master supporting object where it can pivot, and
the claws support a workpiece of some form. At a guess, I would
say that it would be used by a blacksmith, to allow a heavy
workpiece to be swung between the anvil and the forge (heat
source).
It could be an extendible grabber *if* it had:
1) A handle to extend it from the support end.
2) Another handle to grip/release the claws.
Lacking those, I stand by my first impression.
330) I *think* another form of blacksmithing tool. That would mount
on an anvil, to allow forming of rings and similar things.
331) An ER (Extended Range) series collet. I'm not sure which of
several sizes this one is -- perhaps ER-16. (I use an ER-25 set
with my little Emco-Maier Compact-5/CNC lathe, and with the
companion C5 milling machine.
332) The business end of an extension grabber. The cylinder is
probably 1/4" or smaller. Operated by a plunger and (probably)
a T-handle grip. Most have a flexible section between the
handle and the grabber fingers.
Enjoy,
DoN.

327: appears to be some sort of a reamer; maybe for finishing the
dowel holes for furniture?
328: I've got several finger rings that my great-uncle made from
silver coins that way. I think that he started with quarters, though.
