478 All purpose scout tool. Compass, signal mirror, etc. 479 ? 480 Grain cradle scythe. 481 You didn't include size, so . . . a wooden plate, or a cork from a jug of Maple Syrup. 482 ? 483 Pike pole? Used by "pond man" moving logs around in a sawmill pond.
478 Looks like, in addition to the compass and mirror, it can be used as a sextant and altimeter. 479 Falconer's hood? 480 I agree. 481 Bowling pin, from above. 482 Whistle or kazoo? 483 I agree.

482. The oldest nebulizer head on the planet.
Obvious, now that all of you have pointed it out...

According to R.H. :
O.K. Posting from rec.crafts.metalworking again.
478) Surveyor's compass. Originally carried by explorers from the UK, IIRC.It has an ability built in to measure height (angle measurement and level) as well as to act as a compass.
I have an import copy of this, but yours looks like an original.
479) Hmm ... a very old infant's shoe?480) Sythe with cradle to catch the wheat (or other grain) as it is cut.
481) Hmm ... no clue as to the size other than the texture of the carpet beneath it. Maple leaf logo. Could it perhaps be a curling stone? Or perhaps a hockey puck? Is that center part concave or convex?482) Not really sure. Perhaps a water whistle, with the projection at the top being the mouthpiece?
483) Perhaps another of those precursors to a Peavy which were discussed previously? Something used in logging, at least?Now to see what others have guessed.
Enjoy, DoN.
When they are old enough to join the infantry?
