Got one to add to your collection.
Just want it to go to a good home.

Yes. Unfortunately, years ago I got rid of that sort of drill you have. And I have regretted that  mistake for a long time. But I did save a Brace that's real nice and I want to restore it. Where did you come by that drill of yours?

Cannot remember its been too long. If you want it you can have it for the shipping cost.

Looks like a Millers Falls with the roller that keeps the gear wheel steady.  Good find, whenever you found it!

I have a similar Miller Falls speed drill, marked on the handle #2-01  and rather than the roller guide to steady the gear to pinion contact it has a second pinion opposite the quill drive pinion. A real quality machine, runs very smooth.
