this milwaukee is too big
http://www.mytoolstore.com/milwauke/3107-6.html
A little over 5"

Looks like a nice tool but I am drilling down and will backing up
against the subfloor so the angle of the tool and cord placement will
be a problem. If I did a lot of cabinetry work I would definitley own
one.

This might be a possibility. I e-mailed Milwaukee to get the specs
http://www.tools-plus.com/milwaukee-1680-21.html
but it doesn't look much smaller than the 3107

I think I can get by with the Makita or Bosch 3/8 because I only need
to drill 1/2 holes into cinder block. I did a test hole in the garage
and the 1/2" bit went in fairly easily with a non-hammer drill and a
new bit. The DW 18V cordless RA might also work but it has no side
handle to help me pull it down

Rental is out because the places I chack all have the bigger Milwaukee
or the gargantuan Hilti


As an aside why don't any of the manufacturers post the size of these
drills? For a regular dril I could see it is not that important, but
for a R-angle drill wouldn't the chuck tip to end of tool be something
a potential buyer would want to know?
I know I want to know.

I use a right angle attachment for my old 14.4 Porter Cable and it works
great! It's a cheap fix.

The paddle slides from a lock position to a press in position, the more you
press the faster it goes, release it and it returns to the lock position. On
the back end is a speed dial that controls the maximum speed. On the top is
the forward/reverse switch.

There is no place to add a handle however the body is at 90 degrees to the
drill shank and is long enough that it has been no problem holding on to it.

It worked for me in a very difficult location, trying to feed some wires
above the basement wall, between two close joists and drilling up behind the
drywall, while trying to reach over a cabinet installed on the wall flush
with the ceiling with very little room to see what I was doing.

My Makita DA3000R does not have the hole for a handle but it's about ten
years old so I'm inclined to believe that the model from Tyler is a newer
edition.

They are different and surprisingly they list 2 5/8" as the head
height for the 3010, but no spec for the 3000
