A device for use in drilling is adapted to be used in cooperation with a drilling unit that comprises a bush inside which a drill bit can advance and retract relative to the bush, the bush being provided with an opening from which the drill bit can protrude towards a workpiece or an arrangement of workpieces. The device includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is formed so as to fit into the opening of the bush. The second portion is formed so as to fit into a pre-drilled pilot hole in the workpiece or in at least one workpiece of the arrangement.

A nail head removal tool is disclosed to be rotated by an electric drill to cut off the rusted head of a nail that has been driven into a wooden surface. The nail head removal tool includes an outer cutting body having a cylindrical cutting end with a plurality of cutting teeth extending therearound. An inner cutting insert is press fit into an insert cavity formed in the cylindrical cutting end of the outer cutting body. The inner cutting insert has a pair of cutting blades spaced from one another and standing upwardly from a cutting head of the insert. When a rotational force is applied to the tool, the cutting teeth at the cutting end of the outer cutting body cut into the surface around the nail, and the cutting blades at the cutting had of the inner cutting insert cut off and pulverize the rusted nail head.

A drilling apparatus used in the process of marinating a vegetable such as corn on the cob is provided. A rigid sleeve is slidably attached to the shank of a drill bit. The sleeve is resiliently biased toward a cutting head at one end of the shank. An end of an ear of corn is inserted into the sleeve and a hole is drilled in the corn cob as the shank slides through an opening in the sleeve into the corn cob. The sleeve keeps the drill bit aligned with the corn cob and protects the user's hand. Once the hole is drilled, a marinade is injected into the hole and a small dowel is used to plug the hole. The corn is then allowed to marinate before cooking. The marinade penetrates the corn cob and infuses an improved flavor in the kernels of corn.
