Galoots,

The first picture shows a few things I picked up at the Canton, TX flea 
a few months ago - including the Fernhurst screw driver in its box (you 
know that one, Jeff).  The item I have a question about is between the 
Fray & Pigg brace and the Fernhurst.  You can see it better in the 
second picture.  I don't remember seeing one of these before.  It works 
like a push drill or screw driver, but has a point like an awl.  It is 
10" long.

I am making two assumptions:  1) Since I don't know what it is, it must 
be a leather tool,  2) It is an early cordless awl used for making holes 
in leather.  Does anyone else have any others ideas?

BTW, it sure is nice to have GIC back.
