You might have to cut and paste
Was plastered on the back of a new catalog. As far as braces are
concerned, both the local Ace and True Value still have them, with
plastic furniture they were like $15. The bits are what costs. My dad
used them all the time for boring holes in walls for running house
electrical wiring and conduits, he claimed that it was a lot safer than
power drilling since he could stop immediately when he hit a pipe or
wire in the wall. With the proper bit, you could hook the wire through
a hole in the bit and fish it back through, too. Have a couple of
those, still.

Haven't checked for quite a while, but the *last* new brace I
purchased (good one, too) was about $48US. Ball bearings and all.
