RebelSS Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 And you can't swap with Eskimo either...one of my most asked questions. Actually don't miss fixing all the screwed up and poorly-taken -care-of augers and engines out there...after years of it, it got old. Real old. Has to be the most abused things out there, and yet the easiest to take care of, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawg Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 I popped for the new Ion drill just for the center point. $140, but I think it's a good improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelSS Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Two dimes and a nickel. There just isn't much of market. I do like my quick disconnect thingy that lets me unscrew the bit from the head for transport purposes. That was worth $20. I'll decline to agree with that. There sure was when I was working on them. One of the most asked questions. Lot of guys wanted to swap flightings and have drill extensions that would fit, a coupler for one-fits-all, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawg, can you please find another Avatar picture. It's kind of grossing me out after a while!

I've used and worked on everyt type of auger out there to drill holes with since the 70's, and there's still a few that don't have a point on them. there might be a point on them look at about the 1:09 mark in the video, looks like something there; but i would be hesitant to buy one until some more info comes out about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
