The red and black item may be a stack seperator. You hook it on the edge of a surface so the stack sits just on the small flat part.

So funny to see my everyday important tool appear on this channel. I remember well my bass teacher introducing me to that in 1979. They’re long lasting. I only had to renew it once I the past 40+ years. I’ve been using it religiously to keep my bass at the right humidity. Most important as my bass is more than 175 years old and I don’t want to be the owner who neglects this beautiful instrument. I had no idea it was something so easily found in my home town Amsterdam (I know exactly in which shop Tim must have purchased it) as I thought it would be common everywhere over the world. Maybe not then. 😂

[@Blobti]

The black and yellow ball is used to teach babies be more comftable in water, you let the ball float in water and then you can make it flip by blowing on the edges. Atleast thats how i have seen balls like that used before

[@roysnider3456]

Back in the 70’s there was a baby bottle system that used a bag as the bottle and it was placed in a plastic bottle shaped tube and the last device was used to “install” the bag in the tube. The idea was the bag was flexible and would collapse as the baby drank and that was supposed to reduce the amount of gas in the babies stomach.

The Black and Red thing looks like a stack separator to me. I've used similar where you put the device at the top of a stack of (example) tiles, push it in a bit and it separates an x amount of tiles to pick up. This one looks more like you put the black lip on a table etc., and push the red bit into a stack to do the same thing.

I recognised the humidifier immediately. had one similar (but smaller) for my violin while growing up. The air can be quite dry in Australia and you wouldn't want the instrument to crack. The green item at 3:00 is indeed a staple remover. You stick the metal triangle under the flat part of the staple and press shut like a pair of scissors, the staple will open. you are correct in that the plastic handle holding the triangle gets weaker over time and eventually wears out making it unable to remove staples effectively.

The round part clips on the bicycles steering rod. Could be missing a spring, could be from something else, but it looks like a locking mechanism for bicycle baskets.

[@Segafishy]

Silver Balls I've seen new in box before and are shoe deodourisers as others have mentioned, you soak the cotton in a sent of choice, adjust the opening to desired strength and pop them in when you put the shoes away. White Bulb I've seen new too, it is for seperating yolks from eggs as often you'll only want the yolk or white in some cooking processes or recipes.

[@cardinalhamneggs5253]

The silver balls are Odour Eaters. Twist to open the vents, and stick one in each shoe while you aren’t wearing them. If the white ball inside doesn’t smell fresh, the Odour Eater has reached the end of its usable lifespan. I had a pair of green ones which I used in my gym shoes in middle school.

[@TheCorruptionKing]

3:00 that is a staple-less stapler. The triangle cut punch, binds several pages together but can be easily separated if need be. Side benefit, the damage is less visible when scanning a removed page.

It's true about the first one. But, I also seen it offered for acoustic guitars. Effectively, anything made of wood that would (heh) suffer if it dried out.

[@GwynEllisHughes]

The two silver balls are for dropping a perfume or aftershave or even a room freshener oil or scent in, on the cotton balls. When you want the scent to do its work, you twist the balls in opposite directions to open those windows you mentioned. But when you don't want them to work you twist them closed. There are similar ones to perfume the interior of a lady's handbag, and ones to use in a car. But those ones usually have a clip which secures them to the air vents of the car.

Or maybe an insecticide applicator? Something like that?

Im sure its been said 100 times already, however ill identify it again. The two balls with the slots and cotton balls are "SHOE DEODORANT BALLS".
