Most online advertisements for holesaws do not give clear information about the arbor. This requires a 1/2" fine thread shank, Home Depot doesn't stock fine threads of this diameter. I found a screw with a matching thread at ACE Hardware. I cut off the head of the screw so I can put it in my drill chuck. It is difficult to hold the drill in place while drilling as it didn't have a pilot drill and I couldn't use it in my application. I drilled a hole in 1 4" piece of clear plastic and attached the plastic to my work to hold the to guide drills. Other than that, the beat worked well.
