Brass Shell Loading:

[Bruce P Bruner]

"Are the two brass cylinders in front of the funnel brass re-sizers?"

Yes they are sizing cylinders, a 12, a 16 and a 20. The 12 gauge one when inverted supports a 16 gauge brass shell rim for pounding in primers with a flat dowel and a mallet. I also prefer Old Eynsford, more zip and cleaner burning.

My two sons and I enjoyed some rifle bench time and "blowing some smoke".
If you look closely you can see the shot column.

Bruce, who made or makes the sizing cylinders?

Those are vintage Ideal/Lyman sizing dies, Purchased them on eBay with an assortment of loading supplies, procured by the seller from an estate sale.

Are they designed to be used with a mallet, driven on and driven out? I’ll keep an eye out for them in any case.
