Tools and Hardware Reviews of Fuller Tool 890-1072 12-Point Reversible Ratchet Brace with 4-Jaw Chuck
Customer Review: Basically sturdy, poor workmanship
Summary: 2 Stars
Received this item yesterday. It feels basically solid, but I was very disappointed to see how misaligned the "jaws" are. When adjusting, they don't come together evenly, and the closest they come together is about 3/16". So you won't be able to use it with small bits, even though the packaging states that it can be used with bits of "all sizes."
I'll probably keep it, but will likely need to pay a bit more for one of higher quality.
Customer Review: Brace with a bite
Summary: 3 Stars
I only gave my product review 3 because my particular brace gear / pawl ratchet slips & has a defect.
Otherwise
4 stars if compared to similiar designs from other companies.
5 stars for being the most economical brace combined with good materials.
I believe if I had a non-defective brace like this it would be a fully functional economical brace that would last awhile under normal use.
Plastic handles is of good quality & will not respond to moisture like wood handles that sometimes crack if not cared for.
I dont who to contact for a replacement. I purchased mine here.
This brace is plated great & the 4 jaws chuck appears to be hardened & is made of quality metal & tightens well.
Inside the chuck there is a square recess made to fit vintage traditional non hex auger bits.
The brace didn't work well with hex shank bits.
It will grip round bits & older auger bits securely.
As always use sharp augers & drill bits for the best performance & ease of use.
Customer Review: Easy to Use
Summary: 4 Stars
I needed to have predrilled hole on my grape harbor and this made it easy and quite.Customer Review: Good tool, good price...
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this tool to use at a remote cabin site. (The cabin site I am working on has no electricity.) I used this brace to drill over 150 holes in one afternoon. The tool works great and the handles are perfect since I did not get any blisters on my hands from the countinued use...Customer Review: Junk
Summary: 1 Stars
This is cheaply made junk. Broke 10 minutes into the first use. Remember this is a woodworking tool. NOT subjected to high stress or high speed. I DO NOT recommend anyone wasting their valuable dollars on this item.
