Got one years ago at an rummage sale just in case. This and an handsaw and draw knife with some skill can produce an most cozy shelter like the one depicted in previous post.
Yeah. Have a fairly nice one I keep as a display piece along with a few other antique hand tools. Really wouldn’t want to use it now; what can I say, I’m lazy.
To quote Foghorn Leghorn “I say that woman is as boring as backing into a bit and brace”

Ditto
I used to have one, lost it somewhere in some move long ago.
I still have one that looks like a manual egg beater.
I don’t use it, but I could.
I lost the brace, but STILL have the bits – don’t ask me why.
Yes, I used it as a kid.
Have my grandfathers brace and bits.
I still use mine. I’m that guy.
It makes a very serviceable “screwgun” if you chuck up a phillips or torx bit.
I have a “Speedwrench” to do that. Used it a LOT when working in the pits when I was raching. Yes, I still have it. 3/8″ drive.
When I hired on as a cabinetmaker in 1984, we used a brace & bit to bore the hole in the cabinet floors for plumbing lines.
