This one was made under four patents, dated: The nickel plating is 90% and the composition handles are in good-plus condition. The brace is mechanically excellent. The only apology is for the beat-up condition of the ratchet cover. The side-view picture makes the pad handle look rough; that's an image artifact. Note that the method of attaching the jaw spring to these jaws is different than for the method that Stanley later used. The ball bearing chuck will securely grip any shape of bit within its range of 1/8 inch to 1/2 inch diameter: square round or tapered. |
