Old Antique Bit Brace for Carpenters

Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:34:23 -0400

$20.00
This is an old bit brace from the basement that must be at least 70 years old. It was made by Millers Falls Tools which is stated on the original decal on the 2-3/4" center handle. The nob is round and smooth , probably made from the same wood. The decal says from 1868 which I assume is when the company was started. This piece has one bit which is still attached so it doesn't get lost. N9422 something VIN appears to read on the side carved in the metal but I cannot be positive. It's entire length including the bit is approzimately 14-3/4". It's outside has a coating of light rust but everything moves freely. I do not clean any vintage tools exept to dust them off so it would be up to the purchaser to make a decision on that subject. Please feel free to convo me if you would like more specific details that I may have overlooked. I do not make refunds on items unless I have misrepresented the item. I have described it to the best of my ability..Thanks for looking....SHIPPING FOR THIS ITEM will be determined by LOCATION as it is a bit heavy.....PLEASE convo or email me for exact charge before payment....Thanks..
