There's a nice looking set at Woodcraft online for $18, but I don't see
one
for $10. Might want to call them. I don't recall ever seeing one in the
store. 'Course, I wasn't looking for one.


These are the items I saw with Woodcraft online:

I've not seen them at the local place either - but likewise, hadn't
looked before.

Oh, I see what you found:

tool work better than a tailstock mounted chuck?
========================
Probably not. The tail mounted chuck would be automatically centered on the
work piece, and, IMO, drill straighter than hand held or drill press held
drills.
