Default Help locating tool for LoD slider install

I received my LoD sliders and am ready to install. I went through my tools and found I do not have a tap big enough for the frame holes I need to create. So...I decided to get a drill and tap set as recommended by wayoflife in his install writeup, but I cannot locate the tool anywhere.

Help! Does anyone know where I can obtain a 7/16" NP20 Drill and Tap set? I spent 30 minutes googling to no avail...

BTW...very nice writeup. Since LoD did not include install instructions, this will prove invaluable.

TIA

I tried Lowes and Home Depot tonite. I'll try Sears tomorrow.

Thanks.
