I think there is a place in Texas that sells bits. I'm not sure if it's Old Tools or what. I can't seem to find the message where it was posted before. You could try a search engine and look for oldtools.com (or something like that). I sent a guy there before and he had bits for sale. I was lucky when I got mine. The man who sold it to me knew another guy who had bits for sale and I got several good ones. Good luck. I found his web site it's myoldtools.com Jim

Thanks for the help. The place is
www.myoldtools.com out of Greenville, Texas. Unfortuneately the prices for these bits ANYWHERE is very high. It has been recommended that I buy a new chuck that requires a 1/2" threaded connection; then cut the head off of a 1/2" bolt and insert that into the 1/2" chuck on the boring machine. At the same flea market where I got the boring machine I also got a collection of auger bits for a brace at cheap prices, so all I need to do is cut the end of these bits off and use them in the new chuck.
