Millers Falls No. 2
It has just arrived in the mail today, my "new" Millers Falls No. 2 eggbeater drill.I ordered this tool a few weeks ago and I was a little curious about the quality. Sure it looked good in the photos on the eBay auction and the seller had a good feedback, but even then I wasn't sure if it would look as good as in the photos. And more important - would it work well?
Then The Schwarz happened to write about a similar hand drill he received from Wiktor Kuc, fully restored, gorgeous and ready to work. I got even more impatient... My package was getting ages to arrive.Now that it's arrived, all I can say is that this drill looks and feels as good as new, if not better, since every piece on it has been subject to careful inspection.
And yes, it works beautifully!

A hand drill is one of the last things I need to complete my (very) basic hand tool collection. I am putting off a purchase until after I get my workbench built since I don't need it until after I get that done and cash is a bit short of supply right now.
I know they come in different sizes. Maybe it would be good for another post, but have you seen a decent description anywhere of what the various sizes mean?
Hi Luke,
Check out the Millers Falls information pages on hand drills and you'll find what you're looking for.
