So if the price goes up $2.50 every 5 years does that mean I didn't charge nearly enough

 I did a little more digging on the Armstrong Ratchet Drill. I had a similar tool made by Keystone Mfg Co., and looked up their patent info,Patent Number 539423,  listed as a Ratchet Drill.. That led me to Patent Number 914012, Granted March 2nd 1909. Thanks to the folks at Tool Talk, and DATAMP for the helpful info.
