Kitchen cabinet / hinges question

HI

I've installed a set of kitchen cabinets which are mounted using Blum concealed hinges which require that a deep sunken 35mm diameter hole be drilled into the cabinet in which the hinge is placed.

However one of the cabinets didn't have the holes pre-drilled.

Are there other types of hinges that don't require the 35mm hole drilled? (An ordinary hinge won't work as when the cabinet door is opened it'll have no space to rotate due to the door next to it, its a frameless cabinet)

I've been to Home Depot looking for 35mm forstner drill bits and they didn't have any, but if they did I only have a hand drill which probably would just result in the bit jumping around.

TIA
