hand auger conversion to power auger?

[thordoggydog]

anyone ever put a powerauger powerhead on a hand auger? I was wondering if I could put an eskimo shark motor on my laser hand auger?

You must check out the "yo-auger" by the AMFYoYo company. You can guess the HSOforum from the above information. This isn't a joke, and they are the same makers of the yo-net. It is an adapter that takes a hand-auger and allows you to drive it with a cordless drill. Check out their HSOforum and offer feedback. Anyone out there tried one yet?

I mounted my eskimo motor to my strikemaster auger by using the extension for eskimo auger and cutting off set screw mount of hand auger. Slid the extension over auger and drilled hole through both and put bolt through. Works fine except the auger doesn't have a centering spike deal... so it wants to move a bit when starting hole.
