Locally, this kind of thing is just not really done here. But would like to start making long pipes and cannot source bits here. by long, meaning 12"+ (and thin enough for a pipe of course). Anyone know of a place online that sells them?

and about a thousand other suppliers will have what you are looking for.

Where are you located? Country? State? City? If you are outside USA or Canada, try to look up a Machine Tool Supply in your country.

great thank you so much! I am in Asia, there is lot sof industrial stuff here, but a real lack in fine woodworking stuff. There is also a bit of a language barrier. The few places i have found, factories, dont sell retail and dont have local outlets (all export).

Appreciate the links :)

The long drill bits are usually found at metalworking suppliers instead of woodworking suppliers. If you cannot find any in your country, let me know which one you need and I can ship it to you as long as your country allows it in customs.
