Diamond Coated Drill Bit
 
Has anyone seen these bad boys anywhere in Edmonton recently? Need to drill a 1.5" hole and am hoping to find them locally so I can do it asap rather than having to order them in and wait. Thanks.

Yes Rona is pricey. But no where near as lfs. And they have a exchange program
Being back the old worn out one and the new is about half price

I have a 65 mm Diamond Coated Glass Drill Bit, you can borrow, it for 1.5" schedule 80 bulkhead

If you don't borrow one, Princess Auto has 1-1/2" ones for $9.50
Good for at least a few holes before they crap out
Make sure you buy the mandrel as well for another $3

If you where able to wait a couple weeks to arrive EBay has the best deals, I got 2 set of 6 sizes for $50 & drilled a crap load of hole so far & still going.

I picked one up from KMS tools for 25 bucks, set up the ol' Drill Press and went to town. Worked beautifully! Thanks for the info guys!
