Description
A Garrett Wade Exclusive. We’ve often thought these two tools are a perfect pair. Functionally, they complement each other really well. Generations of woodworkers, DIYers, and installation professionals got the job done with this manual drill and screwdriver set! Sadly, a few decades ago, the manufacturer stopped making these essential tools.
Garrett Wade has brought back both tools as a set! They are custom-made to our exacting specifications. They are exceptionally useful tools you'll use for decades. We think they should both be in every shop and job site tool bag.
Drill & Driver Details
Exceptionally well made with chrome-plated, solid brass, both the Yankee Screwdriver and Yankee push drill are beautifully finished. The Push Drill comes with eight traditional double fluted bits (1/16”, 5/64”, 3/32”, 7/64”, 1/8", 9/64”, 5/32”, 11/64"). As you push down, the bit rotates clockwise, cutting the hole. When you stop pushing, the handle springs up and the bit rotates in the reverse direction — essentially self-clearing. This set can make a hole up to 1-1/2" deep. The included drill drill bits are made as they were a generation ago, to clear chips efficiently. They are not twist bits, these are true double fluted bits.
The Yankee Screwdriver works in the same way, pressing in on the spring-loaded handle rotates the chuck to turns and drives the bit with minimal effort. Repeated presses will drive in your screw with ease, and a simple flick of a switch reverses the gearing for loosening and removing screws. Includes four bits to cover most common uses, including:
With its built-in quick-release hex head, the Yankee Screwdriver will accept any standard hex bit from your collection. This model is identical to our previous one, apart from the addition of a brass chuck, which we quite like. It measures 9-¾” closed and 12-½” extended.

"These are handy."
"These tools are a must for finish carpenters."
"iT HAS BEEN MANY YEARS SINCE i HAD USED EITHER THE DRILL OF THE SCREWDRIVER BUT THEY ARE EASY AND DON'T TAKE BATTERIES. GREAT FOR CRAFT PROJECTS. DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THEY STILL MADE THESE TOOLS, THANK YOU,"
"This set adds versatility to my drill and driving needs. The drill can produce a precise hole (I use in punch to locate the bit) and the driver can easily pop in gently waxed screws up to a #14. I use the screwdriver often for brass screws and have never had a broken head. Can handle small and large screws easily. The price is forgotten while quality is remembered."
"Classic tools which work great. For many jobs these are better, faster and easier than a drill or screw gun. I had one years ago and have been missing it. These are great quality tools."
"I purchased the push drill and Yankee screwdriver set because they fit compactly in my tools and supplies bag and are lighter to transport than electric drills and drivers. They are a perfect combination for creating starter holes and inserting screws and nails in areas of my vintage shop where electricity is frequently unavailable."
"Fantastic! Feel great, function great- easier to manage than I thought they might be- highly recommend"
"These two are exactly as advertised. Just did a couple of small jobs that I have been putting off because I dreaded getting out the electric drill with all the paraphernalia. It was a 'Wham! Bam! All done, Ma'am!' kinda thing. I do not know why it took me so long to buy this set. Just being retired cheap, I guess!!!!! Two of the most useful tools in my traveling tool box. The drill bits cut through wallboard and wood with no problems and with panache. I was through the material before I knew it. The screwdriver is going to be named 'Zippy'. Zips those screws in and out with minimal effort. Do yourself a favor. Spend the money. Have someone gift you. Get them anyway you can, legally. These are worth it! Well made and I suspect they will be around a long time. Make sure you practice a bit to get use to the techniques. Instruction sheet included though it could use a bit more clarity."
"Excellent"
