Hi all. Im pretty new to the forum here and I have found a ton of knowledge from fellow users.
My question is do they make an auger extension for a hand auger?
I have an Eskimo 8 hand auger and I am running it on an Ice Kicker II. That set up runs like a champ and easily cuts through a foot of ice or more. The only issue I have with the setup is that with thick ice you have to bend over pretty far before the auger actually cuts through the ice.
I know they make extensions for gas augers. It looks like these set up have a 7/8 (.875) drive shaft. Unfortunately that type of extension is too large for my set up. On my auger I have measured it with a digital micrometer and its .69/.70
Any information on where an extension can be found would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all,
Matt
