anyone know what these things are/do?

The first picture is molder/dado arbors. In the second picture the bottom item is a saw blade arbor for Shopsmith blades that have a 1 1/4" arbor hole. The top item is a #2 Morse taper arbor that fits in the tail stock and is used to mount the drill chuck.

Arbors = for mounting circular discs to the quill shaft. saw blade. grinding wheel shaper cutters. The 'correct' one must be used appropriately.

Tail stock arbor adapter = typically used to mount the drill chuck on the tail stock.

They all look the same to me. BEWARE the too long set screw(not good!!!!).
Missed the arbor in the second pix. Tis as John said.

Thank you all, I wondered about that set screw too. I appreciate the answers.
