Can someone give me a location to buy some long tapered bits? The longest I have been able to find on the net is 3 inch.

Hello Bob,

The ones I've been using are made by Fuller. Lots of us were getting them from Bits 'n Bores, which is no longer in business. They are now being handled by Jamestown Distributors, who I've also done some business with on other things. They are a good outfit too. Here is the main link to their site:

While they don't look very long in the picture the (9/64, 5/32, 11/64) are all 5 1/2 inches long.
