Antique Craftsman No. 1071 eggbeater hand drill, a classic manually operated hand tool designed for drilling smaller holes in woodworking and general shop applications.

The eggbeater-style drill uses a geared mechanism to convert the movement of the hand crank into rapid rotation of the drill bit. This practical design was widely used before electric hand drills became common in workshops.

Overall in great shape with nice wooden handles and a good chuck. Had handle storage but it is empty.
