Historical information
The upright post drill (pictured) was produced by Champion Blower and Forge of Pennsylvania, United States of America; a company that produced blacksmithing machinery from the late 19th century. The post drill is a hand-powered tool with a large flywheel, height handle, gears, spindle and chuck. It can be attached to a free-standing mount such as a post, and used by farmers and blacksmiths to drill wood, iron or steel.
