Yankee No 15 Screwdriver Disassembly & Restoration

In this video I do a total teardown & repair of a vintage North Brothers #15 ratcheting screwdriver.
This screwdriver was missing one of it's pawls, so I had to make a replacement pawl from scratch.
We also do a 'light' restoration on it.
This tool was made by North Brothers, but there are other variations out there made by Stanley, who bought the designs in the 1940's.
