This is my blog about power tools that were made in Australia. I am interested to learn about their design, manufacture and use. Hopefully I will be able to create an archive of these power tools so this important chapter of Australian manufacturing is not completely lost.
I have the drill press stand to suit the Skil snaplock drill, it's very well engineered - simple, durable and ingenious. Just need to find one of these drills now...
Hi all, I have actually just found this exact drill. My neighbour was throwing it out and I was like “um excuse me, but if you are going to throw that out could you please throw it in my direction (not literally of course, it would’ve T.K.O’d me). Does anyone happen to know where i can get my hands on instructions please ???
Cool blog, love the old tools.

Forgot to mention: contact me if you'd like pics and details. still has the makers mark and label with part # etc. It's near mint.
