251252 Jesse Walker <jwalker147@h...> 2014‑10‑20 Estate Sale Finds
I went to a living estate sale two weeks ago, and found some jewelers and
other misc tools.  Any comments on the extruding machine, or anything else
pictured?

The "extruding machine" is a rolling mill used by jewlers. It is used to 
reducew thethickness of sheet or wire. Notr the grooves on the side of 
the rolls. These were used to roll wire of different sizes.

My guess on the card broaches is clockmakers tools.

Jesse, The "extrudeing machine" you found is a rolling  mill and is used by
jewelers to reduce the size of wire or thickness of sheet metal.  A typical new
one is shown 
at:http://www.ottofrei.com/search.php?mode=search&page=1 The "card broaches"
are also a common jewelers tool used to clean up hinge joints and other areas.

The card broaches are sold for clockwork and haven't changed much in 
centuries. Traditionally they are used to install bushings and to open 
the holes in the bushings to match the wheel pivots. They can be used 
for other things but perform poorly on ferrous materials.
