So I'm looking to run some central heating pipes along a side wall in my house, but it needs to go through a perpendicular wall. My problem is I can't see how to drill the hole through the perpendicular close enough to the wall I'm running the pipes along, so that the pipe stays nice and close to the wall.

My drill is too big to get close to the wall, and it looks like I'll have to bend the pipe out from the wall in order to go through the hole, and then bend it back against the wall on the other side.

Are there any special drills for making holes in tight spots?

The only alternative I can see is a hammer and chisel, and then fix the mess with filler.
