Right, I need to drop some networking and coaxial cables down from the
loft into a bedroom.
Drilling a hole in the ceiling wall plate is easy from the loft side to
pass said cables through.
half way down the wall is a noggin.
I wish to mount the wall socket lower down than this noggin and run the
cables to the wall socket.
I dont really want to cut a hole in the PB to access said noggin to
drill a through hole.
Is there such a thing as a 1.5m m long drill bit extender I can place
between my wood boring bit and the electric drill?
being able to do this would be a time and a making good time saver!
S.
I once made a long drill for a similar reason out of a long threaded rod.
(Just what I had to hand). Did a bit of crude heating and hammering to
make a simple spear point (a bit wider than the shaft) and ground some
sharp edges on to the spear tip.
Very inefficient but perfectly adequate to drill through softwood.
