I need to create a 2 1/8-12 UN thread. However, the Creo Hole feature offers holes up to 1 1/2" Only. Anyway to get the rest?

You need to edit your .hol files

Location of files:

Creo 2: <load point>Creo 2.0\Common Files\MXXX\text\hole\

Creo 3: <load point>Creo 3.0\MXXX\Common Files\text\hole\

Information here:

Creo Parametric Help Center

If you search this forum for .hol files you can see examples of others that people have created.
