Bit Brace

This exceptional tool is high quality and heavy duty in all aspects.  It is definitely not your average brace. All metal components are thick, strong and heavily plated for corrosion resistance.  The high strength plastic plate runs on ball bearings and the handle action is smooth and comfortable.  The three jaw chuck accepts round, hex and traditional square auger bit shanks. Square auger style shanks fit deep into a recess and the round shank is clamped by the chuck for a strong, slip-free grip. The ratchet mechanism allows the brace to be used in confined spaces with ease making this a most useful tool for drilling, screw driving and removal. The best part is no electricity is required!

10" sweep, 14" overall length.  Made in France

Stern Universal Bits

These are the bits recommended by teacher and author John Alexander. Here are some of John's comments about the Universal Bit: "It has two nickers and two lips. Both the nickers and the unthreaded lead point are small and require no modification. The bit is far more accurately made than the Powerbore and will hold up well. The metal is harder. The bits’ configuration makes it twice as aggressive as the (old Stanley) Powerbore."
