My lathe came with a few bits that I have no idea of their purpose,...here are 2 examples

Item 1. The three holes are threaded, and the flat face has had something adhered to it, like a gasket of some sort. Stamped Q1 36277840

Item 2. quite possibly part of something bigger? The centre block raises & lowers when the brass wheel is turned. No markings at all. Quite possibly home made.

Anyone sure of what they are??
Any educated guesses??
