Hold on just a second. (0:38) First you say “it’s called Bob” then you say it’s called “Rick”. Then you say (1:33) it’s “Chuck”. Come on, now. Let’s get some consistency in your naming standards.😤
I actually bought a corner brace so that I could use it with my son while he was seated
Brace yourself for a comment down below.
It is nostalgic for me. I used to watch Dad in wonder as he drilled with this device. Carpentry history is fascinating. In every culture, men have developed tools to fit their needs. Thanks for a great video.
A brace with a 15" swing is useful when using a tenon cutter for chair legs, for example.
You're removing quite a lot of end grain wood per rotation then and the extra everage is helpful.
The original 'cordless' armstrong power drills. Similar to the original cordless power saws....
The original cordless drill ...
Brace for Impact !
I do love the Archemedes drills.. I have at least 12 of them in my collection.
GarrettWade has a brace with a 1/2" drive. Comes with the 4 jaw chuck, and they sell a 3 jaw chuck. I got both, a really good tool.
Alright everyone brave yourselves for this one. lol 😝
You have serious issues Brother...I LOVE IT...!!!...as I feel not as alone...LOL!!!...P.S. someone took me timber frame cornering brace ...😮💨😪..I've been looking, but they have gotten expensive...!!!...and I miss it for the work I do...
I love your knowledge and information. But, honestly, I think I tune in as much for whatever compilation of puns you've assembled for whatever the topic is.
I have missed saying this for a while. Comment Down Below, "down below". LOL. I get the point of this video, but it does go round quite often. Just like my drill sergeant. LOL.
Thanks for the entertaining video. Just looking at the breast drill. It would be good for modern Forstner bits. Tapered square drive Forstner bits are very rare on my side of the pond (Australia). And the modern ones slip in the standard two jar brace chuck.
I have two braces and an egg beater drill and they are my favorite tools. Thanks for sharing this.
Archimedes called, he wants his credit of inventing his Drill...... Great fun. PS you missed the corner Ratchet handle brace, and Re the Ratchet feature Boat builders use the ratchet All the time to drive slotted silicon bronze screws.
I use the ratchet mechanism a lot, usually when driving screws in tight spaces. Get a screwdriver adapter and try driving screws! Right through the 2x4s and out the other side.
Boatbuilders use the brace to drive fasteners (screws) before the battery operated drivers were available. A brace could,drive the bronze screw through the plank into an oak frame, like it was butter…
@@alholston-smith7631 I discovered that braces are amazing for driving in torx head screws. PZ screws on the other hand are a pain unless you can put your full weight over it to prevent them slipping. The brace looks a little odd with a makita magnetic bit holder in it but came in handy when i left all my drills at work!
Esta furadeira Arquimedes feita em madeira é fantástica.
Também esse articulador pra adaptar no arco de pua é incrível..
Belas aquisições.
Great video James, I love the humor you put into your videos, some of the other videos out there especially the UK and Canadian are informative but can be kinda drab keep up the good work, Glenn
At 9:00 i own one of those cool angle things with the union. Never used it but its different. You are Wright James, once you have the bug for "love of old tools" ya just gotta have it.😊 . Thanks for the informative video
If you keep having FUN with that FUN thing,, you will go blind..
I've drilled a hole near a wall. That ratcheting mechanism lets you drill without a full revolution
Anyone keeping score on the number of puns in this video? I've only been watching for a couple of years, but this one has to be pretty high.
you could make a pump drill with a flywheel. my father made me one when i was a young boy. great fun. other than that, great video and informatin as always.
The corner brace is the best. I like it the most.
How are wooden braces made?
What direction do the wood fibers have?
Is it made from a single piece of wood?
At the begining of the video I found you quite augermentative. Later, very informative!
Interestingly enough, I actually own an old Miller's Falls breast drill that has a 2 jaw chuck! I'm honestly not certain if it's designed to hold tapered augers or simply a two jawed chuck for round shaft drills. It is capable of holding both, and does so quite well. The jaws are shaped almost identically to those of a two jaw brace. Have you ever seen such a thing, James?
The ratchet brace is the one I own. But I have found bit braces to be like hand saws. There are many different types. No one type is better than another. So yes, there are many different tools that can do the same job.
Comment down beloooooowww!
I'd love to see a video about all the bits for a brace. I have some blacksmith one that is a wrench for a square bolt and one that is square to go in a square hole.
5:39 using it with screw bits turns it into a screwdriver with excellent torque control
Comment down below.
Comment down below.
ive seen a lot of used braces where the jaws are stripped out. very frustrating.
Brace yourself ... Comment down below.
Id love to have some heavy versions of that screw type, maybe with a small base
I would like to see the corner brace in use. I have halfway learned to use mine but am not sure if I am using it correctly.
Very nice. Your point about how many different styles there are must be valid - you have many yourself. I only have three, and one is a type you didn't show here - sort of a T-shaped ratcheting corner brace. I do love using them when the task isn't time-sensitive.
Well that was boring......I enjoyed it.
Next spiral ratcheting screwdriver.
I have my buddy one of them angled braces.
That looked like the type of fun yaint sposed to show ppl 🤣
You really drilled that into my head.
Keeping abreast of the subject
Brace yourself for another boring video.
All hands Brace for Boring!
Oh great, another boring video.
I wonder if boiling was involved with putting the handle on the wood drill. There is a famous puzzle where you make a bunch of slots in a piece of wood, then stick a nail through, but the last piece of wood is in the way of putting the nail through. No way you could even fit the nail at an angle, let alone drive it with a hammer. How do? Boil the wood and squeeze the hecc out of it so it compresses like a sponge, then insert the nail. Boil the wood again and the squished part recovers its shape. Perhaps something like that was done to compress the knob inside, or stretch the handle.
In this case the handles went on first and then the rod was bent.

You are twisted! Love it!
Thanks a bunch for the lesson, James! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks for sharing.
You should consider doing a video on secondary bevels do you need them I watched some video on this subject then I tried it both ways on my chisels and didn't see any difference I use a honing guide it much faster and easier to sharpen one bevel
Here is my video on it. th-cam.com/video/m7xNQ-XEoNI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fdIZtohgljMPOzeo
Love the puns! Lol
Cdb
Thanks James!
Nice presentation. I always enjoy your videos. I have several different braces myself and enjoy using them from time to time. It would have been nice to include a discussion on push drills/drivers (a.k.a., Yankee screwdrivers/drills). The wooden reciprocating push drill is essentially the precursor to the Yankee drills/drivers. Keep up the great work.
Thanks
Thanks
The Lee Valley Replica Eggbeater Drill is surprisingly useful. I use braces more for driving brass or bronze slotted screws than boring.
*that
The ratchet on a bit brace is great in tight spaces (inside cabinets for example). At a workbench it's useless, but for furniture repair/modification and carpentry I wouldn't use a brace without it.
Fun!
Over the decades I've owned three bits of the same size with three different names. The bell hangers bit and the ships screw I was unable to tell the difference between, the third was called a lamp makers bit and one full rotation in was a cross drilled hole to fish wiring with. All three were in the 18"-21" range and a smidge over a half inch. Lol even Leo didn't try to run his shaft hole with a brace. All three of my bits snapped, no doubt from the abuse, none were new when I got them and what they had been used for I don't know. The biggest modern bit I found was a 7/16 round shank homeowner lamp makers bit. I used them to bore mounting bracket holes in 8x18 ridge beams on barns.
I've got a couple of those I inherited from my Father and Grandfather. But I am a power guy and they are never used. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Awesome and informative video. Do you have a video discussing like the top 10 or 15 hand tools a beginner woodworker needs as a bare minimum to start making furniture and small projects with? If so, thanks in advance.
this video is a bit older but I think what you are looking for. th-cam.com/video/vek049MUK0o/w-d-xo.html
@@WoodByWrightHowTo thank you very much
I have a good collection of braces, and I find the Millers Falls Hold All chuck to be the best out there. It does hold everything really well, and without fuss.
I see these in thriftstores every now and then and I can never make up my mind on which kind or one is worth cleaning and restoring. How do I know if it's too worn?
I guess I need bits first 😅
I love my collection of cordless drills. They are fascinating. Nice video as always.
The torque is a great point and why I'd like to own at least one brace. The 10 inch swing seems the most versatile one.
❤
Bill Anderson teaches a course called "The Cooper's Brace" where he teaches how to make a brace where the bit is in a swappable block of wood.
I love it when you lean into the Roy Underhill style jokes and puns!!
Quite the collection.
I love my braces. My favourite type is the original Yankee brace. Thanks for the video.
My favorite is the ones that keep my trousers up...
Need a video on a shop tool, eh? Well, you know the drill.
Thanks for sharing that, it was fun!
'They made their own'...
'I would love to show you one, but they are very expensive'...
Can you see the solution here?
Some day. Some day. they are also time intensive to make.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo Only if you make them by hand...😄
Great overview, IMO! Perhaps you'll do a video on the different styles and types of auger bits as well - which is best for hardwood, which for softwood, etc. Thanks for sharing.
Here you go. th-cam.com/users/livebQySvqZujuc?si=q2LrI1iGsvbwFz11
YOU're telling US to forget about names? Bit rich tbh
Hahaha, no. The ratchet allows you to bore a hole near a wall where the wall precludes you from making a full revolution. Please don’t use the ratchet to increase force (stop and sharpen)
That's another use for it. But allowing you to put your weight into it is another great use for it. Often it has nothing to do with how sharp the bit is but how big it is. There's lots of reasons for it.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo you are right (and wright - “by blood” - so always). Kind of analogous to the skip-tooth hack on an arbor press to get the handle at the right position for maximum leverage. But if we’re going to talk maximum leverage, when the boring tool is sharp but the bore diameter is large, are you using the right swing? Swings came in 8, 10, 12, or 14 inches (bigger than 14?). I do wonder if entrusting the pawl to hold on the ratchet with all your body behind it could leak to breaking the brace.
Your video was a game-changer for me. Thank you! 😍
