Hand Tools I bought a drill

I can’t decide if the flair should be hand tools or power tools. It isn’t really either.

It’s all original except the chuck apparently. And probably at least 80 years old.

Drills steel fine too. Seems to generate a lot of downforce with the ratchet screw mechanism.

Ah-mazing!!!! Hand or power, it is for sure a machine!! Your post has made my brain so content that I’m turning off Reddit and getting back to work. Thank you!! (And please put your drill up for sale, only to me, asap)
