I need a Forstner's bit that is 2 3/16th. The typical on-line vendors
offer a 2 1/8th and 2 1/4 size. Anyone know if this size is made?
This is for a production job - need to make 100's of these - so this
is getting bit frustrating.


I won't say _somebody_ won't make one, but I've never seen~1.5" in
anything other than eighths. May have to have that made special if has
to be Forstner and has to be precise.

Maybe there is a metric size that approximates this dimension. Didn't take
the trouble to check this out.



Only if a 55.55 mm would be easier to find. ;~)
