That short hand drill is the bomb.  Who made it?
Is it a Dunlap?

Nice wood handle screwdrivers :)
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

Chili, that strange little drill isn't a common maker.  Was just in the shop and forgot to look, and too darn cold to run out there again.  Something like Pow-R-kraft?

I found a Dunlap brand one in the 1960 or 1964 Craftsman catalog.

I was looking there while working to figure out the correct "V" series for that time.

john k,

In the off chance you don't already know, PowrKraft was a Montgomery Wards brand back in the 1960's & 1970's.  There were many companies that made tools under this brand.

I'm pretty sure someone here will be able to point you in the right direction for this semi-unique drill; it pretty cool and definitely a "keeper".

Thanks Lauver,  is a name I have not run across much.  Nice to find there is still more to learn.   I have this bad habit of acquiring things with a hand crank on the side, back, or top.
