>To add to the past threads on Y/SDs I found an interesting chuck that I haven't read anything about here. The chuck holds the fluted drill bits and fits in the std size driver.

Also found with it two different size square nut drivers, a #1 Phillips bit with a 7/32 shaft.

Unrelated to the Yankee also found with them 5 New Stanley plane blade 3 #6s, a #4, and a #3

>Cool! I didn't know that they made nut drivers for Yankee Screwdrivers. Seems to be no end of attachments for them.

Dump picking again?

>Neat chuck don't think I have ever seen one like that, are you sure it is a Yankee? I have seen lots of the Yankee screwdriver to drill adapters [no. 309,319, and 359] but they don't look like this....I see the nut drivers everynow and then but not to common.Did pick up a few weeks ago a pair of pretty rare bits that were designed to hold screw eyes so that you could put them in or take them out using a Yankee screwdriver....Todd

>I'm new to the site so I don't know if these have been mentioned before or not.

Last summer I found a countersink bit. Then wednesday I found a Yankee with an apex bit holder. Having used apex bits in the Air Force I did a search and found their website and checked their catalog and they are still listed p/n 450, 460 and 470. They also make a square adaptor for sockets. Not to mention a whole bunch of bits.

I don't see any name on it, but it fits the 130A.

The Nut Drivers are Millers Falls.

>I ordered a couple of the adapters a while ago, on backorder.

Thank for telling me about the countersink, it'll give me something to look for. I did find two CS for a brace today.
