When using a small arbor with your hole saw, one that doesn't have dual pins & a locknut, I have found that by wrapping a piece of solid copper wire around the base of the threads allows a gap between the arbor & the hole saw bit. This stops steel to steel connection and makes removing the bit easier.

we had new hardwoods installed in a room that has a fireplace. The fireplace has a gas line that runs under the floor with a valve that can open or close with a key. There should be a 1 1/4 hole in the wood floor above the valve in the gas line allowing access to open or close the valve. The hole above the valve is too small and won't allow access to the valve. I would like to enlarge the hole so I looked for a non arbored hole saw to cut a larger hole, but I can't seem to find one that is made for wood. I can't use a hole saw with an arbor or spade bit because it would hit the valve on the gas line before completing the cut in the floor. Are there hole saws without an arbor or is there a different tool I could use ? Last resort would be taking a 1/8 drill bit and going around in a circle and then trying to file the circle smooth.
