Black diamond shaped object seems to be bakelite with the number 6 on it?

Welcome to treasurenet.

For the future... please try and post pictures using something common as a size reference such as a quarter for small items or a soda can for larger ones.

Also... the quality of the pictures is key to a proper solve of your mystery items... and the more pictures the better of angles and sides.

As far as the items you have pictured.

From left to right first picture... top... bracket... part of mounting post... cant see... and unsure.

Pic 2 is vague and hard top make out items... but item 2 is part of a roofing nail... item 8 curtain hook.

Pictures are VERY grainy and weak.

If you would like detailed solves... you will need detailed quality pictures.

Welcome to Tnet from Toronto Bible! :hello:
Looks like you're off to a great start in your new hobby.

I'm pretty sure that I've found something like this before, but can't remember what it was from? :icon_scratch:

Best of luck to you,
Dave

The center piece in the left pic looks like an adjustment knob/handwheel. Would have had a threaded shaft and some of the other pieces could be related. The center piece in the pic on the right "beside the curtain hook" is a fahnstock clip from an old battery, T model coil, or other electrical device. The piece on the bottom left looks like part of a window latch.

Left image is a 1932 - 34 Ford front spring clamp and u-bolt plate. Can’t tell what the other part is in same image, to grainy. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1581224481.529779.webpImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1581224495.277845.webp

number 7 in the second pic looks like the spring wire clip from an old battery like they used in the old crank phones
