Metalworking tool catalogs should list counterbore drills -- that
should serve if you can't find the original tool.  A counterbore is a
device vaguely like a drill, except the tip "angle" is 180 degrees,
and there's a pin in the middle to guide it.  You use it to
counterbore holes to take screws that have flat bottoms, not conical
ones.
