Having bought a hole saw and arbor from Screwfix and put them together in
what I think is the correct configuration I was frustrated by the fact that the pilot drill was barely longer than the depth of the hole saw which made it very difficult to align it with the mark for the centre of the hole. I located a screw on the side of the arbor and removed the drill to check the size and look for a longer one. Turns out that the drill had 3 little notches in the shaft to allow pre- setting different drill lengths. Who knew? Still a bit of a fiddle to make sure the grub screw located properly in one of the three notches, but at least a variable length pilot drill.
