Ice Auger
« on: Nov 28, 2011, 09:50 AM »
Sold my old auger and looking to buy a new one. Likely a Eskimo or Jiffy. Where in Regina would have the best deals and service? Not from the city. :icefish:

Eskimo z71 10" at wholesale seems like a good deal, 429$ + tax. I just dont like how much plastic they have on theses augers now. My tecumseh jiffy white lightning fell out of the truck @ 60 KM/H on pavement and didnt break.. still started first pull at the lake too.

Although if money wasent as issue I would buy the Tanaka with a strikemaster flighting or the husqvarna.

I'm with Layne,  I have to be honest, I don't know how good the other augers are, but I have had my 3 hp Jiffy for 22 years, yep I'm an old fart, and other than a couple of carb kits, last one engineman installed for me last year, my Jiffy is still going strong, cuts holes in seconds with a sharp blade. The only negative would be it's a little heavy for you to carry around if you like to drill 50 or 60 holes.  F.B.
