I've still got a drilling steel from my mining days somewhere that was used in a Holmans 303, it's a starter drill, 2ft long, sometimes when drilling the cut, a long drilling steel would run into one of the cut holes next to it, impossible to remove so had to blast with it in situ, that used to bend 'em, we used to use them as lateral supports for temporary staging up in the stopes, they would carry the weight no problem.
