A drill bit has a shank adapted to be attached to a power tool and a cutting portion adapted to drill a hole in a material. A collar is spaced along the length of the drill bit to set a depth distance that the drill bit is allowed to be inserted into a material being drilled. The drill bit further comprises a first engagement structure. A sleeve comprises a second engagement structure that is releasably engageable with the first engagement structure. The sleeve further comprises a coupling mechanism for connecting the sleeve to a fastener driver.

Drilling apparatus and method

A wood drill bit has a plurality of step sections where each step section has at least one flute that terminates in a cutting edge. The effective diameter of each of the plurality of step sections is different than the diameter of the other of the plurality of step sections such that a single bit may be used to bore holes in wood of different diameters.
