Still working on an ID for the eggbeaters....the two breast drills? One is a Jordan France....the other is a Goodell-Pratt, with a label on the grear wheel. The chain drill? Also a Goodell-Pratt,,,,single patent date.
Was also gifted with this box....red package it an 80" bandsaw blade, 15tpi, from Sears. That little chuck? You add that to about any brace drill, and then use small twist drills, like for pilot holes.
And a stack of hardwood flooring cutoffs....will see what I can cobble up from them. That wooden jack plane? Needs a tapered single iron. Also has a split right down the center line..
Swag bag from Laguna, EWT, and Woodcraft....not too bad of a day....

Mystery drill. Has stamped onto the Crank handle...
Either "Jordan" or Jordin? and FRANCE.....looks like OEM Paint was a dark blue?
Two speed, the gears sit in an enclosed area....used to be a ball bearing thrust washer.....most of the balls had fallen out....
The drill behind it is a Millers Falls No. 120, so this "French Drill" is a biggie. Not much else to go on...
