Valid questions indeed.

>>Not counting drill bit length, for 90° drilling,
> what's the minimum length needed for tight quarters

Excluding the drill bit, it is roughly 5 1/2 inches, which is the length
from the tip of the chuck, to the back of the Orbiter "ball"

>>how close can one

about 1 1/2" from the edge of the orbiter to the center of the drill chuck.

I had a look at the review. Not counting drill bit length, for 90° drilling,
what's the minimum length needed for tight quarters and how close can one
get to drilling adjacent to a flat surface?
