Goodell-Pratt Hand Drill No. 53 |
1 of 2
|
|
|
The drill shown here was most likely made after 1923.
We base this assumption on several elements described in Catalog
No. 15, published in 1923. However, the most resent catalog
in our disposal is dated 1905 - Catalog No. 7 and the next is
from 1923 - Catalog No. 15. Consequently, we have a gap of
16 years and no information about tools developed during that
period.
As we continue our study of Goodell-Pratt Company
we will make corrections to the current information accordingly.
1905 - Catalog No. 7
Capacity 0 to 5/32 inch. Chuck patented
August 13, 1895.
This Hand Drill is the same size as No.
52 shown and described on the preceding pages. The rack gear
has a wide face which can be used in place of the crank handle for
delicate work. It has also the added convenience of a small
side handle as shown in cut.
