Bought a Power Auger Today Plus some Gear!! Bring on the ICE!!!

[ammoguy5]

I found a good deal for a power Auger and 11 Tip Ups, Plus a couple Jiggin Rods. $150.00 for everything. I didn't have 150.00 but the Guy said he would take trades also. So I gave Him two Morgan Silver Dollars and $80.00 to Seal the Deal. I am really excited about the auger! My old two year old Manual auger drilled about 100 holes and believe me it wasn't easy... I can't wait for Ice in Now!!

It's a 6 Inch Tecumseh

Right, And now maybe some of My Friends will want to go with Me, They would say they wanted to go until I mentioned My Manual Auger. Then They suddenly had other things to do.Lol

Thanks for All of the comments!

I would suggest getting a new set of blades and centering point for it and put them in your sled along with a wrench to change them.  It would really suck if you got out the first time and found out that the blades were dull.  This way you're covered if they're dull and if you luck is mine they won't be.  I'd also change the spark plug for safe measure.

Chris, That's Great Advise. I will do that for sure.I'll even clean out the carb. I don't need any surprises after Ice In!!
