OK so many looking but no comments so I will start the ball rolling, here are two drills I made in the mid 70's one a steel drilling twist bit extension, and the other a masonry drill extra long, made from solid stock with brazed tungsten carbide inserts fitted to some barrel with a turned down solid drill chuck adaptor, now this was in a time when such drills were so so expensive, when I said I made my own TC masonry drill people laughed, but here it is, over 40 years old, I also made a disk cutter from a washing machine motor around the same time, if there is interest I will get it out and take some pics, Rick
