I can't remember the size of the extension, but I believe it is larger that
7/16. I would check around and see if a hardware store has a 7/16 inch long
bit. I know they have them in 1/4 inch. I bbelieve the one I have in my tool
box is 10 inches. If you know some one that can weld a extension on the bit you
have, that works too.

It calls for 4 holes at varying lengths, the size of bit it calls for is 7
sixteenths. Can you get an extention for that?

It depends on the size of the hole. You could use a extension.

K, I am toying with this idea of making a quad train whistle. It requires
that you drill 4 holes at different lengths.
The deepest hole is to be 7 and 1 fourth inches I think. I checked the paddle
bits I have and at the most, I think they are capable of drilling 4 and a half.
Is the trick to cut the wood, and drill coinciding holes in 2 or 3 different
pieces, then glue them all back together, forming longer holes, or are there
longer bits to be, had?
I have a 12 inch drill press.
