A Corner-Bit Brace.

An extremely useful tool is the improved •corner - bit brace, illustrated herewith. In these days of special requirements in the line of ■electric appliances, plumbing, etc., this device will be found of material aid in making the necessary -openwigs for such. Unhke the ratchet brace, the

•corner brace is drawn constantly either m its backward movement or its forward or cutting course with complete revolutions, m cramped positions, corners, etc., as with an ordinary brace unobstructed. In the illustration the guard-plate covering the wrought steel gears is shown partially removed, thereby showing a section of the gears. Besides keeping the gears free from dust, these plates prevent possible injury in handling the brace.
