Title: Millers Falls tools
Post by: Nasutushenri on September 16, 2018, 08:55:44 AM

Yesterday I found two MILLERS FALLS tools in the local charity shop:

Bit brace 10" No. 1710

Screwdriver 10" shaft No.676

Paid € 11.50 together.

Rather common in the US, I think, but very rare in the Netherlands.

Regards
Henri

Hello, Henri. Nice tools you have there. I believe you have a 676 Steel Head Screwdriver.  I can send a photo & description from the catalog page, if you don't already have one. Regards, Lou

Thanks Lou. Saw the screwdriver on page 42 of the catalogue 1949.

Those are nice.   Thanks for sharing those.
I hope you don't mind i grabbed a copy of your breast drill picture to try to help possibly identify another one someone had posted up on PatriotWoodworker.
