    Found another North Bros drill

    I really have no intention to start collecting these things, but when you find something like this for a really good price - what do you do?

    Take it home and clean it up to see whats there. It was only $4 more than the 1555, so I couldn't pass it up.

    A 1545 this time. Probably not in quite as good shape as the 1555, but it looks pretty good to me.

    I do have a beat up 1545 already, so I can put this one aside, I suppose...

    That is really pretty!

    Clearly, I need to move to where you live and start following you around.

    I've got a couple of North Bros. eggbeater drills, the little one (can't remember model number) and a big breast drill from my uncle. Great tools.
