- I put my ice auger to work when drilling out all the holes for my pasture fence. It worked really well! I will say that we don't have much for rocks in our soil so that really helps. Definitely be careful when trying this it can be pretty wicked!
Gods video. I have a gas auger I can’t give away. It will be worth a try for fence posts.
I can't find one
Awesome tool
Very good video, can you give me all the details on that auger please?
Just a standard Ice Fishing auger. It is pretty old, likely produced in the early 90s.
I dont advise this with an ice auger anyway, There's a reason an earth auger has 2 sets of handles for another person. If you use an ice auger and you happen to strike a root or rock in the dirt , that's going to be a world of hurt for you. I know someone who did this and he struck a tree root in the ground and the powerhead tore out of his hands violently and dislocated his shoulder.
Agreed that this is a dangerous move in some cases. I didn't have any issues and don't have a ton of rocks in my area. I did hit a couple of roots and it was rough but I was fine.
There are one man earth augers too. They just have a shut off lever that hits your leg if you hit a rock or a root.
My concern as well in rocky areas, but interesting it worked for you
I'm going to do the same, thanks!!
Deep enough? 😆
I know them
