Re: 5 ft. long drill bits at Home Depot!

Yah they hide them in a piece of pvc pipe at the end of the electrical isle.

The only problem with them is the flutes get clogged because of the way the
drill is welded to the rod, make sure you "unload" the hole of saw dust
frequently. Another tip....use a regular drill bit to get you started, then
use the D'versibit. That way you'll have a nice straight guide hole AND save
some life of the Dversibit. Oh, yeah...don't keep the drill running when
you're moving through an insulated wall or you could wrap the fiberglass
insulation around the drill.
