Extra long drills.

Faced with the problem of having to drill through several formers to install some control snakes, I devised the following tool-

First I procured a piece of brass tube and fixed a conventional drill in the end securing with thin cyno,then I placed a piece of piano wire down the centre of the tube,very unconventional but it worked really well,I just placed the extension drill into my power drill and carefully drilled through the bulkheads one by one,the plastic snake outer was then fed into the holes and locked into place with a few dabs of cyno as well.
I have used this drill on sevral occasions without any bother whatsoever.
