The second one looks like a circle marking/cutting bit used with a
brace. Haven't a clue for the first one.

No, that's not what it is. The square tapered end is the common
termination for a hand held brace. It looks very similar on the
working end, but the one you linked to is usually used to cut leather
and cork and such for gaskets.

Its a repleace able end hand shaper. The one thumbscrew in the block
held the scraper bit, and the other onthe angle provided prerssure
onthe bit to make it ridgid inplace onthe tool. It was commonly used
in manufacture of wooden double sash windows in conjunction with
planes like the Stanley 88 etc. It also was capable of holding the
same blades as the the Stanley 88 plane used, which allowed the shape
shaper / scraper bit to get in to corners etc.

You already know about the other device used in a brace.

Probably for thin sheet metal, such as cutting in flashing
around a pipe.

You mean he never saw a seen set tool, and which of the roughly two
hundred flavors of saw seen sets have you seen setting a saw? Oh,
sorry.............. Left out the.............

The second one should be placed on a long pole and,
in conjuntion with many of your fellow farmers, used
to chase any Frankensteins, ogres, etc., from the
countryside.

The circle cutter has been noted by many. I think the other one
is one of many versions of saw sets for bending the set into saw
blades.

The one on the right is a washer cutter, but it's mis-assembled. The two
cutters should be on the same side (otherwise they get in each others'
way). It's used to cut two circles out simultaneously, to make a ring
shaped washer.

The second is a circle cutter for brace and bit as somebody has said.
The first I don't recognize immediately, but it would help immeasurably
if the picture showed the working end of the tool instead of the handle.
