Anybody know where I can get hss twist drill bits larger than 1"? Prefferably with the shank necked down to 5/8 or 1/2". Really looking for a 1 7/16" bit, but after 2 hours of googling, no luck yet.

Check with TBone, he probably knows how you can make your own!

Wholesale Tool may have what you need. But confirm that they have in stock before ordering. Their stock keeps on dwindling. I had to make a 2" hole in 1" thick steel. Drilled 1/4" hole at the center of the proposed big hole. Used hole saw to lightly scribe the perimeter of the larger hole. Center punched several holes around that perimeter. Drilled 1/4" holes just touching the outside of the scribed area. Then cut with hole saw, half depth from each side of the 1" piece. The 1/4" holes around the perimeter provide a place for the chips to fall through and the hole saw cuts much better. Need I say that this process ain't fast!

Sam, what are you trying to drill? With holes that size on thinner stuff I use hole saws all the time. You can cut 1/4" steel pretty easy with a hole saw. much thicker than that your probably going to need a drill.

well MSC, mcmaster, or most any industrial supply house could get ya one. i hope you arnt planning to use this in a half inch portable drill, it will be hard to do and most likely wreck the bit. drilling holes that bug takes slow rpms, a rigid machine, either a drill press or milling machine. what is it you are gona drill, a bit that big will not drill well in matterial under about 3/4 of an inch thick. if its not too thick a hole saw is a better choice, or a corebit works nicely too but a bit expensive to buy

It's www.mcmaster.com They've got them, but you're going to pay $75. Still, they're my first place to look for pretty much anything that falls into the "weird hardware" category!
