Default Hollow Bell Hanger Drill Bit

I use my snakebit drill hollow bell hanger drill bit for installing coax and smaller wires through walls all the time. The shank is hollow so all you have to do is push the wire through the shank and the wire is through the wall.

I had one that looked exactly like that: Down-stroke of a swing with a 3 lb drilling hammer the hammer head flies off...

It flies off.

It flies the f--k off!

...and bounces off the end of my finger. Blood everywhere. I couldn't believe I didn't break anything.

Thatrs funny. Its a stupid big DC relay. Some kind of round nut with two holes in it. You take a half inch nipple and grind it down on both sides leaving the two points in the middle. The no 8 in those sets dont fit it.
