    The steel, brass and nylon brushes are easy enough to pick. The last 3 top right are little drum sanders. You will need to buy and fit the appropriately sized sanding sleeves on these if you havn't already got em.

    The last 2 bottom right are also sanders ... 80 grit by the look.

    Not sure about the 3rd from end bottom right. Does it have hook and loop face? If so probably a disc sander. If not then still probably a disc sander requiring PSA backing on sand paper.

    Can't tell you about the stones. Obviously for grinding metal but not sure which is used on what sort of metal. Don't use them much myself.

    One final point... especially if these are not genuine Dremil parts, make sure you use eye protection when you use them as some of the stones in particular don't look like they are balanced very well. The high speed of a Dremil could throw bits off them and into your face if you're not protected.

    thanks for the sound advice

    I guess the shafts look bent due to distortion in the picture , and probabli everything is balanced just OK - the can't be that bent , and still be fit to use in a Dremel

    The colours do relate to the abrasive type and so what they can grind, just cant remember what they are internet should provide answers.
