Default 14mm Drill for 14mm Barrel Hinge.

Pat schrieb:
I am having the hardest time finding a 14mm brad point drill here in the
SF. bay area. Does anybody have any suggestions. I tried woodcraft,
Sothern Lumber, and all the usual places Sears, Home Depot etc. I even
tried CB Tools.

If anybody has succesfully installed the 14mm hinge using a non metric
drill bit I would be interested. I tried 9/16ths but it is too big.

Thanks.

You should try Leevalley.com just checked their site, they definitely
have a forstner drill bit 14mm. The article no is 06J72.14, price $6,40
Since you write that you want to install a hinge, imho a forstner bit is
anyway more suitable than a brad point tip.
