Erection means is connected at one end to a forward guide assembly and at the other end to an extension projecting to the earth surface. To erect the whipstock, an extension of the erection means is pulled from the surface to cause the guide assemblies to swing into a curved pathway. Thereafter, a drilling tube is passed through the whipstock into the adjacent formation. The whipstock may be deerected by releasing the extension means. Then, the anchor is released and the structure is pulled out of the well.
