What I need is a place I can buy individual bits in assorted sizes. I am missing bits down in the middle of the set, but don't want to buy 6 bits in each size.

    The last time I needed a number drill I found it in a Snap-On® tool dealer's truck.

For those who use number drills in the shop:

Keeping   a full set of number drills around is a challenge for me. I find 
that   after a few years, or five, or ten, that set tends to thin out in 
the   smaller sizes. They get broken, dulled, or just disappear 
mysteriously. I   can adequately freehand sharpen the larger half of a set 
as I need to, but   the smaller half is well beyond me. Back filling sets 
with individual bits   is the first option if you can keep a running list 
of needed replacements.   MicroMark has another option that I haven't seen 
anywhere else. They sell   bit sets of #41-#60 (Item # 82727) for $22.

I thought someone might   find this useful.
