What happens when you run out of diesel or propane for your beloved generator? The Amish Mafia wants to know.
Bet he wasn't drivin' to school in the 70's during the OPEC crisis either........
Besides, I like making her scream as the yuppies cross country ski by me; I can see the look of pure disgust.
I bought a Strikemaster 4 stroke ,Honda engine about 12 yeaars ago. Electric augers were just something new into the market. I wish I had bought an electric one then. But my Honda does the job just fine. I only take my gas one if the ice 8" or more. Cutting by hand is good exercise
I have the same set up capt., and couldn’t be happier with it…especially on 12”+ ice! I use Tru-Fuel 4/stroke, and she runs like a top. Weight is manageable as well for an O.G. like me!Also have 6” Nils…use by hand on early ice, and with a Milwaukee Fuel conversion later on until the ice gets thicker! Love to hear that familiar “growl” of the 4-banger.
Im no yuppie, but rather hear a gas auger than someone else music out there.
I have a one arm bandit, a dril clam plate combo, and a hand auger..... I love the sound of the one arm bandit.... But i have too much ice fishing gear and i havent used it in 2 years because it overloads my sled and i dont wanna drag a sherman tank lol.... The drill is easier... But it doesnt have that roar.... Lol
