An apparatus for the collection, gathering, and disposal of the debris that is created when drilling a hole into a vertical surface. The ‘Disposable Drill Debris Eliminator’ (DDDE) is designed and constructed in a very simple manner and is thus very inexpensive to manufacturer; the DDDE is designed and constructed so that it is foldable, stackable, and thus very compact; the DDDE it is disposable; the DDDE contains in its design, a method of alignment, which enables the user to align the drill more easily to the intended hole position in a more perpendicular manner; the DDDE contains in it's design and construction, a device that enables the user to control the depth of the hole being drilled; and the DDDE is re-positionable for many uses because the adhesive strength is of the strength of re-positionable sticker notes.
A method to collect, gather, and dispose of drill debris that is ejected from the drilling surface while drilling a hole into the surface using an apparatus wherein the apparatus is comprised of 4 panels, an adhesive coated back panel, a front panel with an upper lip, that are connected at their respective bottom edges, a vertically folded left-side panel where the rear vertical edge is connected to the left vertical edge of the back panel and the front vertical edge is connected to the left vertical edge of the front panel, and a vertically folded right-side panel where the rear vertical edge is connected the right vertical edge of the rear panel and the front vertical edge is connected to the right vertical edge of the front panel, wherein these 4 panels together form the body creating a pocket/cavity, wherein the back-side of rear panel comprises a means for adhering the body to the surface to be drilled, and wherein the body is adapted to convert from a substantially flat (closed) configuration to an expanded (open) configuration by unfolding the vertical folds on the left-side panel and the right-side panels, wherein the expanded body defines a cavity formed between the back panel and front panel, and wherein the back panel is made with a hole in the center, and wherein the front outward face of the back panel is “cross-hatched” with vertical and horizontal lines perpendicular to each other.
