You have a drilled hole that is too small. You can't just put a bigger
sized Forstner or spade bit it the hole because it has nowhere to
center. Here's the solution!

Step Drill.

But you can drill a hole bigger with a true Forstner bit.



'splain, por favor.
Go a picture?




A true and well made forstner bit is capable of cutting a cove/scallop
out of the edge of a board. It does not use a center point to guide it,
the edges guide it.
