i made one kind of like that,but i put a 9" round aluminum plate on it so if the auger comes out of the drill chuck it doesn;t go down the ice hole!!
any other cheaper alternatives to gas augers that you guys can think of?
Get a big burly friend and give him a case of beer each out if he drills the holes all day. Of course pay up after the outing.LOL
Wouldn't take long to add up up here. 6 cases of ale and you have paid for a power auger!!!! Yeah we get hosed fo booze!!!!
99$!?!? that is about the price of a nice hand auger!
The strikemaster power augers are from 170-200 rpms. maybe at that speed you may burn out the blades??? Not sure.
Yep. Even the wife couldn't stay mad at me for buying it.
How do you burn up blades on ice, last I knew ice was cold
