Ice Auger Storage Options?

[Mracekvb23]

What do you guys recommend to store you ice augers?

I'd prefer a wall mount bracket if possible? What options do I have?

I put one of those big, rubber coated, screw in hooks into the ceiling of a shed. I hang it tank side up on the handle.

i take the auger bit off and store that in my sled thats hung from the rafters then i just set the power head on a 5 gallon bucket and tuck it behind the boat

went to menards and picked up some brackets that were designed for bikes. They had some foam material on the arms and they swing in and out

I put it in my auger bag and stick it in the corner of the garage behind my snowmobile

I have a super simple wall mounted wooden rack that I built that allows you to securely store the auger vertically against a wall with no danger of tipping or falling. Highly recommended for safe storage. I don't have pictures at work but will post some later.

X2....12-14 inch scrap shelving/board, glue & screw together 2 pieces to make "L" shape, then cut a 3rd piece in half diagonally. now the 2 pieces cut in half can be glued & screwed one on each side of your "L" shelf on inside edges so auger weight is on these "angled" pieces. cut/drill a "U" shaped hole just wide enough for your auger stem to fit in, then drill & attach to studs

I have used this for years. Less than $10 and available at most large stores locally. Mine doesn't have the 3 indents but the coating is nice and it is very sturdy as long as you mount it to a stud or on a 1x6 cross brace with the right hardware.

Here are some pictures of what I built. I thought I had a million dollar idea (OK $100 idea) and made a bunch of them from scrap material. Tried to sell them on the list of craig and ended up giving most of them to friends and family.

The key is to size the hole in the top plate the size of the collar of your auger. You can slide it in because the sharft is smaller and then it sets firmly in place and can't slide out without lifting up an inch. I even routed the top edge for a nice smooth edge. Make the whole thing 16" long and you can it two studs when mounting on wall. Good luck!

I found one of these gas station 2 liter crate thing (Not the MILK crate) and kept it thinking I'll put it into use some day. During the summer with an idea with a couple of 2x2's laying around and some screws I came up with this thing. Perfect fit and during the summer months I just put a large garbage bag over to cover.

I do the same as Mcgurk and use the bracket that he showed...works nice

[Rebeleye]

Just mounted two metal brackets to the garage wall, then wrapped the arms in electrical tape to prevent the metal from scuffing the auger handles.

[Eric_Kruger]
