Drill 4" hole through 1" wood desk

Hi.
Any recommendations on how to drill a 4" hole in a 1" thick wood
desktop? I havent been able to find any 4" drill bits out there.
Thanks.
A circle cutter, hole saw, or router fitted with a circle cutter jig.
The circle cutter requires a drill press running at slow speed. If
you are using a circle cutter or hole saw, drill just until the center
bit pokes through, flip the desktop, and drill from the other side to
prevent splintering.
