drill bit

[sgimbel]

I want to make my first Roman Harvest pen. The large drill bit calls for a 33/64" bit. I have a 15 mm bit. I use Gorilla glue, will the hole be to big and sloppy or do I go order yet another bit?

13.0969mm = .515625" = 33/64"

I think the 15mm is gonna be a little sloppy.

Any idea where to look for 1?

I would suggest an industrial machine supplier or the supplier where you bought the pen kit. They usually provide the drill bits required for the lits they sell.

Try Enco. If your chuck is only 1/2" capacity or less you will need a reduced shank drill bit.

Usually the supplier of the kit will have them too.

If the Roman Harvest is a Berea product in the El Grande family, then you may want to go with a 13.3 mm drill instead of 33/64.
