Just realized after a job in a 100-year-old house in Savannah that using a flexible drill bit extension saved me two hours of crawling in a tight attic.
I was trying to run a wire down a wall that had a fire block, and the extension let me drill at an angle from the floor below without having to cut a huge access hole.
Honestly, I just grabbed whatever was on sale at the hardware store. It's just a cord for a lamp, you know? As long as it doesn't catch fire, I'm good.
I used to think those flexible bits were just a gimmick, but after a job like that, who wouldn't change their mind? It's crazy how much time they can save.
