The auger he is talking abou is Called a NorMark Swede-Bore Pro. Yes it is purple and it has a double off-set hand for speed. I own in an 8" and it can beat a gas powered auger most times. They are a bit more money but well worth it. I find you don't need to push the auger through the ice it does the work for you, unlike other's that have the cap handle on top. You can probably find one at Wholesale Sports.
