| Description: |  | Claim:
 In the usual drill holder for use with turrets of drill presses, the holder comprises a housing having a shank adapted for mounting in the chuck in the turret and journalling a shaft having a drive element such as a bevelled gear at one end and a socket chuck for receiving a tool, such as a drill, at the other end. These holders support the drills in on-center positions only. It is frequently desirable, however, to drill holes in off-center positions and this involves a great deal of adjustment of the drill press or like machine or the work holder or both which is time consuming and often results in inaccurate work. |  |
