Remember this brace from a Moving Day sale? The one with the fancy wood for it's handles? Well, I got after it with the drill press mounted wire brushes, and a good wipe down with some Neverdull pads. Turns out this little 8" brace is at least 100 years old. A Stanley Rule & level Co. of New Britain CONN USA on the chuck. There is a "VICTOR" stamped into the arm. On the other side from that stamping......No.935 8in Ratchet parts work like new. The wood handles are Rosewood. Apparently, this was sold as a "Victor" model, about 1907 to 1917, or so. Might need to find some springs for the chuck? Or did it even have any? Wood parts are crack free, too. Not too bad for $5?
