I use a 1" spade bit to cut a hole through a 4X4 but the

Round wood rasp.

Rasp, sanding drum, sandpaper on a stick...anything along those lines.

Don't use a larger spade bit. You can't really enlarge anything bigger than a pilot hole with a spade; it just makes a god-awful mess.

Came here to post this

I looked up rasp and this was all lowes had so I got one.

Looks like it could work I guess.

But the tool is called a "wood rasp" not a file. Files dont have wood cutting teeth.

files work just fine for light shaping, I've done it

And wrenches work fine for light hammering. Why would we recommend the wrong tool for the job just because it sort of works when we can recommend the right tool for the job? Rasps are made for wood. They will do a better job, faster than a file made for metal would. If he has to go out and get the tool he might as well get the right one.

op said that's what lowes had

if it was a choice between a drill attachment and a round or half round file, the file would have been the way to go

Got everything to work right, thanks guys!
