Hello all!
In anticipation for the hard deck, I thought i'd ask your opinions of the cordless drill auger options out there. Last year I tried using an adapter that fit my old hand auger and was excited to ditch the gas. Unfortunately as I pulled the trigger the auger was all over the place. I never could seem to get the blades to bite and steady itself in one place.
Maybe my blades weren't sharp enough, or I was going at to fast of a speed. My current thought is i need an auger that has a center spike, much like using a hole saw. That K-Drill auger looks cool, but $250!!! ouch!
Love to hear anyones thoughts, experience, or advice. Bring on the ice and lets all be safe out there! Thanks.
