So many faves there, but that drum roller accessory (like it would wash gravel or something) would be high on the list of wants.
As is the windmill with the water pump, all in one.

That is a Bing Sifter or sand toy c1904.
The Windmill is a Sand Dredger which is also a Bing c1910.

That 101 flywheel is damn heavy, they aren't all brass though. Just the outer rim
