Default Low clearance drilling

I need to drill a 1" hole in the floor from the cellar up through a 2x4, yet
there is only about 8" of clearance at the spot where I would drill due to a
beam. What are my options other than to purchase a right angle drill? I'm
not even sure if I'll get the clearance I need from the right angle drills
that I see at the local stores.


Rent a right-angle drill for the project. A few, easy measurements should
reveal whether or not the rental drill/bit will fit in the confined space.
Good luck.
