As is common on this forum, we are gradually swaying from the original question that ExtraMile ask. Suddenly it has evolved into vintage machinery. Oh well............

I would guess this is aimed at myself?
If it is, please tell me how this is not related? I am asking a simple question that in my opinion is related to what he is doing.
I guess if we want to be that persnickety about staying on subject I can easily delete the post and walk away.
Actually, I am just going to delete the post.

No, no. Don't delete your post. You have your own opinion and it is valued. I was only stating mine. It was just my opinion that his question was rather specific. Please don't be offended. I am perhaps a bit over disciplined about certain issues. Sorry, just my opinion.

Being really specific... The original post referred to other than "plug in tools".
I have been away a bit and missed the now deleted message but in my case if I were going to plan on doing woodworking in a non electric shop a treadle powered band saw would be about my first pick along with a spring pole lathe.
For hand tools a hatchet, draw-knife, smooth plane, spoke shave, brace and bits. and a hammer.
Or maybe a pedal powered Shopsmith...

I met him, this past Saturday and just so happens that he has electric tools in his shop. I saw his vintage Rockwell table saw, with wood table tops.
I never saw, anything like that!
I said, hmm. Well, maybe the 'all hand tools is for demonstration only' and when you have orders, whip them out on a plugged in tool!

So 2 answers here, first one inspired by robinson46176.
Option 1:
1. Shopsmith without electric motor attached to a large wheel pulled by Donkey (since water wheel would be inconsistent speeds).
2. Bottle Opener
3. Beer
Option 2: Desert Island version
1. #4 Hand plane
2. 1/4" chisel
3. Wet stones w/ honing stone.
4. Crosscut saw
5. Pencils
6. Cabinet scraper w/ honing rod.
Since I have wood around (or what else would be the point), I could essentially make whatever else I needed, including a tape measure (or ruler if I can't get my hand plane sharp enough)
