All of the above look like Aircraft parts, except the last piece, not sure on that.

thanks for the info is it possible to find out what aircraft this specific piece is from?, Also are FB parts differant to the SFB parts im finding or from the same aircraft/aircraft manufacturer? the wellington bomber parts I have found have SFB but this is the first time ive found with just FB, whats the differance?
edit: wonder if its from a Beaufighter seeing as this part was closer to dallachy than milltown...

I've searched and searched over the years but have yet to find a comprehensive list of aircraft part numbers short of obtaining the specific type's parts manual. Those seem like rocking horse you-know-what too.
I have a B-17 parts manual but, if the British manufacturers are anything like the US, then parts fabricated by, for example, Bristol will have the 'FB' code and parts that form assemblies manufactured by other companies will have their own parts nomenclature.

Got the dial ID'ed on another forum by someone helpful, apparently its a tuning dial from a T 1083 transmitter, most likely from a ww2 bomber
