I wish there was a hole at the base to double up as a fishing tool, but that's j...

Extra long wood bit

Would Recommend

Exactly what was needed to complete the project we had. Easy to install and use. Was able to drill through the bolted together joists easily. Comes in a handy plastic box usable later for storing the bit.
