And..it was the "Pick of the Litter" of the 6 that were all tangled up in a pile...
10" sweep. Chuck WILL hold even the round shanked drill bits...
All it needs is a bit of a clean up....everything works nicely.
Any ideas out there, about who made this drill? Thinking Gooddell Pratt Co. but not sure...maybe a No. 1052?

If it works it is a good find.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

I didn't know braces were made so they could hold round shank bits. I thought they all used the pyramid shanked bits.

All depends on the jaws inside the shell....Barber Chucks are more for the square shanked bits...
I guess that is why they came out with the "Hold-All" style chucks...

Yankee 2101s will also hold round shank bits. A lot of people use twist bits in them, but frankly, a brace is not optimal for twist bits at all, they crave RPM, not torque.
