How to Drill a Curved Hole
By Andrew Liszewski on 12 Sep 2016 at 4:30PM
Even if your carpentry skills aren’t much more than having watched a few episodes of Home Improvement, it’s still pretty common knowledge that a drill only works in a straight line. Or does it? Woodshop hacker Izzy Swan created a custom rig that can actually drill a curved hole instead.
By welding a drill bit onto the end of a flex shaft attached to a curved rig, Swan’s unorthodox creation allows a standard power drill to bore holes through wood that curve in any direction he needs. It’s useful for running wires and cables through inside corners of a new home under construction, but also because the idea will also melt your brain a little.

Actually, this could have a lot of uses to create channels to route plumbing, wires, and cables and weaken those pesky 6 X 4 posts.
And, who would doubt that a "woodshop hacker" with the name "Izzy Swan" would not end up with a way to "melt your brain a little".
