I need a bung hole cutter
I simply have been unable to find one on the net, or through my vendors. It has a T handle and what looks like a serrated hole bit on the end. It is used to cut a 2 inch hole in a 5 gallon bucket lid so that tint can be added without removing the lid. Then you plug the bung with a little plastic cap.
I had and used one in the mid-eighties, but no one seems to know what the hell I am talking about.
Help!

Why not a hole saw?
If you are going all Amish on us,
chuck it in a tap handle.

I could make the tool in a hour, but without the exact plug, it is pointless

Ts, maybe some precise dimension might help. Is it the same hole as a regular paint pail? I can get you that within 0.0005 tomorrow AM.

It is a standard 5 gallon un-necked bung hole size, whatever that is.

I have a micro adjust bit for a brace. I don't use it very often, but it's the cat's meow for things like that

You might try looking a supplies for wine and beer making, I saw something similar to what your talking about used for home made wine, they put holes in the top of 5 gallon buckets (could be he was using a painter tool, not sure).
