    Nancy,  Karl Frish Company in Portzheim, Germany {excuse spelling}
    has some pump bow drills but you need to make sure you really need
    that type <i think not> i sort of think there are two kinds of bow
    drills... the ones that you pump up and down-- verticals-- ( i have
    one and really love it for certain techniques) and the ones that you
    bow back and forth-- horizontals-- from what I've seen of the
    stonecutters in Asia (India mostly) they tend to use the back and
    forth bows that let you tilt the bit as you go in deeper...  Karl
    Frish does have a catalogue but its only in German. good luck...
