Hello,

Whilst shopping in Aldi I saw some 1 metre and some 600mm sds drill
bits at Aldi. I don't know if that might be useful for someone?

If so, please could you tell me what on earth you use 1 metre drill
bits for?


I have a set of 3 from CPC a few years ago, about £7 IIRC.
First job was to drill a hole in the corner of the ceiling
diagnonally through the wall into an upstairs room which
was not above the room I started from. I could do it easily
standing on the floor without any steps;-)

Also used to drill at a shallow angle through thick walls,
so entry/exit holes are well separated on either side, on a
few occasions when that's been required.
