I have a VERY heavy post hole digger 12" auger

Does any one, have a picture of a "phd stand" that you have built, that you can share?Thanks, in advance

I don't know how to paste the link, but there is a very good thread going on in the "Build it Yourself" section of this forum. Great ideas.

Hi loghouse

This topic comes up a few times a year, you might want to try the "search" function, should be at the top of your page. A search for "Post Hole Digger Stand" or "PHD Stand" or "PHD Dolly" should return lots of threads to read.

Here's a picture to wet your whistle...

we just had a heavy duty A frame built to hang our post hole digger on.build it high enough so you can back the digger under it an put the chain on it an hold it up in the air.

We had a hook welded on top of the gearbox and hung ours from the crossbeam on the shed. Worked for years.

Quite a few 3PH auger storage ideas here: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/build-yourself/200826-anyone-here-ever-build-stand.html

Simple people do simple things. I just back under a tree limb, hook a chain around the digger and un-hook. :thumbsup::2cents:

So your auger's a tree hugger?

I don't use mine much, so I spend 15 minutes to take it apart and lean the pieces in a corner.

Here's mine, if yours is really heavy you might want to use 6x6 posts and a 4x4 crossbar. You slide the crossbar out, back into place, put the crossbar back, lower the PHD, unhook, then drive away.
