Description: |
This inventions imparts an ability to the Belcher (patent 240,223) and Hoague (patent 262,771) design to be used as an Archimedean drill or as a bow drill. He says in the patent specification: "When the invention is applied to the drill known as the 'Chicopee drill', patented to J.H. Hoague August 15, 1882, the handle may be rigidly affixed to A by a set screw..." So his invention was a variation of the other two inventions. This drill may never have been manufactured. |
