Yankee No.1555 Breast Drill – For Parts
Original Stanley / North Bros Components | Ideal for Restorers & Collectors
This Yankee No.1555 breast drill is being sold in parts due to some parts being broken or missing, ideal for restorers, machinists, and collectors seeking original components to complete or repair their own drills. The 1555 is one of the most complex and desirable Yankee drills ever made, and original parts are increasingly scarce. The drive type selector was seized and the grub screw holding the main shaft on the drill was missing. Otherwise, it is all in excellent condition. The drill is the one in the photographs.
Perfect for restorers needing an authentic main gear to complete a drill or replace a damaged wheel.
Side Handle
Although this side handle looks good on the drill and is nicely finished, someone decided to create a screwdriver out of the threads. Still works fine and locks up tight, but can be awkward to engage it.
Condition
A replacement part for anyone restoring a drill with a missing or damaged side handle.
