My 7 1/2" k -drill works some nice, Light bquiet no gass and ligtht to carry. with Clam handles
I thought it would be a good idea to spring for the clam plate with handles. Seems to me that using just the drill handle might end up causing a pretty serious wrist injury which I certainly don't want as my old bones are'nt getting any stronger. How much more weight does that clam plate add if you don't mind me asking?

Will an 8" Strikemaster Mora work or do I need a new auger for the cordless drill set-up?
If you already have, its a cheap way to get into it. I had an old fin bore that I just bought a kovac adapter for and worked great. The problem we found is when kids and others muckled on to try, it skated around and caused some potential problems with out the center point. If you are going to be the only one that touches, might be fine. Sold it and bought joffy torch that my son and his buddies are using, impressive with that center point and ripper blade, just saw it on sale somewhere for $119. I'd buy the 10" ion bit and adapter if this was going to be my only auger
Thanks Gamefisher for tip as my grandson may be using it as well, don't want any mishaps, I'll pick up an auger with center point
It only takes one ruined pair of Bogg boots to make it worth it, ask my son, plus the piece of mind, good call RB
