Garden Auger Bulb Planter for Soil and Earth Heavy Duty 2" diameter Reviews
And there's only one bevel, so you'll have to tighten the chuck pretty well -exactly- on that one bevel to make sure this doesn't slip. So I'm going through grass/sod, roots, and the occasional thumb sized rock. Once the top grass/sod is out of the way (all augers I've owned have trouble with this) it drives deep and cuts through the roots. That's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
but I knew this when I bought it, so I can't ding the product for that. Works pretty well. I bought this to drill holes into my heavy clay soil to drop in tree food spikes for my trees. This is slightly smaller diameter than I need so I have to use a less sturdy, but larger auger to finish the job.
The bevel on the drill end is pretty minor - almost non-existant.
I usually get them in two or three days. They are a family husband and wife business. Their service is beyond excellent. The difference is the cutting edge. You can't beat Tom and Becky. If you want it for two or three holes, the cheap ones "MIGHT" do. It is made of much heavier steel. I own 7 augers that I purchased from Custom Auger, including a few of their high end industrial models.
There is abig diference in theirs compared with the less expensive others sold on Amazon and hardware stores. If you want the auger to last, buy from Custom Auger. They ship on the same or next business day by Priority Mail.
