Iâ??ve had a couple 90 degree drill adapters (with a drill chuck on the end). 
They work, more or less.  They have pretty low torque limits, and I broke one 
boring floor joists.  (100 year old pine is hard; bit stuck, gear train went 
boom)  I got a real right angle drill, which is vastly superior.  But for a few 
holes, an adapter will be okay.  Theyâ??re not precision tools, but thatâ??s 
probably not important for you. 

The right angle impact driver adapters are cheaper, and have the same problems. 
(They work great for screws, though).  I might go that way, with a spade bit.
