    Patiently!

    Quite the haul, there! The bits are pretty straightforward, just follow what you see on the cutting edges, unless someone has previously done a botched job on them. A sharp edge is just two planes meeting in a straight line, and remember to allow clearance behind any cutting edge. Handy to have an auger bit file or a small file with a safe edge, but you can do most of the larger ones with a small mill file if careful to avoid damaging spurs and lead-screws.

    The saws & gouges, well, there's heaps of advice & encouragement in various threads in this & the 'Sharpening' section.....

    Cheers,

    I'd start off with a good sand blasting.
