Small Hand Drill

10 inch cutie

I purchased this little 10" hand drill off ebay. The crank knob was fastened directly to the drive gear, as they were sometimes on hand drills of the late 19th century. Upon inspection I discovered that it should have a metal crank arm and the crank should be mounted just the way Millers Falls hand drill cranks are.

There are no manufacture's marking on this nice little drill. A name if any may very well have been on the missing crank arm.

The drill is refinished but in original colors of black, silver and natural wood finish. Does anyone know who made this drill?
