A corner brace is the most distinctive of these hand-operated drilling tools. Its angled frame and enclosed drive allow holes to be bored near corners where a conventional brace cannot make its full sweep. Two standard bit braces have wooden palm rests and rotating grips, while a geared hand drill uses a small side crank to turn the bit. Their contrasting mechanisms address leverage, access, and control in hand-powered drilling. A denim tool roll holds flat wood-boring bits in stitched pockets, with handwritten size markings along the pocket strip. Six small rasps occupy a separate fitted blue roll. Their toothed faces provide shaping tools to accompany the drills, alongside additional files, scrapers, chisels, and other handled workshop tools. Measuring tools include a Stanley PowerLock II 25-foot tape measure and additional tapes. The largest item measures approximately 19" x 15.5" x 3".
