Drill bits are used to create circular holes in workpieces and come in various standard sizes from #80 to 1/2 inches. Extended length drill bits are for thicker materials and range from 7/64 to 1/4 inches in diameter with lengths from 6 to 15 inches. Both regular and extended length bits are selected based on the needed hole size and used with a drill press or lathe by chucking the bit and drilling to the required depth.
