I always drilled from the exterior. Just get the drill started and then go at a 45 degree angle.

Well depending on where you're building, here the rough electrical is done long before they wrap the building, but George you're right there are some places where you do the exterior first.
I just drill both sides in at the same height. If it's a real hard one i'll punch a hole right in at the 90 degree angle to help me fish. I'll also fish in a single loose conductor and use that to pull the others through. Gets easy after a while. I don't worry bout the carpenters because the carpenters don't worry about me. If they did they wouldn't put load bearing points at wall intersections or use glue lams that run the length of the whole building. Or frame up small walls in the kitchen using 2x4's.
