xtra long drill bits

Anyone know of a source for extra-long drill bits or a drill bit extension? I need 1/8" bits that are 12-15" long or an adapter to extend a standard bit. I will finish riveting together all these aluminum panels...

I use the small hex screwdriver type drives adapted to a 1/4" socket drive so you can use any combination of extensions from your socket set.

They carry 12" and 18" bits in the 1/8" size on page 2202.

Good Luck
