Niggling drill bit issue

I've got a little John Nelson plan for a dinner-table-type folding
candle-holder that's full of "Gotcha's".
One is candle size. I need to drill hard curly-maple for the base of
the candles. Nelson sez to use candles with .5" base: I can't find
any locally. But I've got some with 17/32" base.
I have no bits greater than .5". I don't *think* they make a 17/32"
spade bit. I tried wiggling the .5" bit to enlarge the hole a little.
It didn't work.
Do I have to special-order a 17/32" drill bit? Is there another way.
Apologies for the nickel/dime question.
You've got the wrong sized candles.
