has Tom ever mentioned this dubious sounding master of all Pinnacles drill holders?

I've talked to him about it but have never seen it.
He evidently had someone weld a ratcheting box end wrench to his drill holder - or they fabricated a custom drill holder with the same rig to facilitate the turning process with more leverage. I recently used my small pair of vise grips clamped on the drill bit to make turning easier when I had a hole that was binding. The beauty of that method is it's removable.

Yes I have spoken with Tom about this contraption and I understand the premiss and his design.  It doesn't really work for stance but if you are hooking and want to slam something in it would be great. I could fabricate Tom's design easily with my Merrick Bayonet. I would recommend getting a Merrick Bayonet for this, but sadly Mr. Merrick is no longer making the drill holders.  It would be possible to make your own but you would need a machine shop.
