Storing post hole auger?

[lutt]

If you're gonna be leaving it outside, just drill a hole and unhitch n go. Doesn't cost a thing.

Wr have stored like this for years, never had any trouble with auger bits. LUTT

Yes, the down pressure kit has saved me days in drilling time.

Brian, is the down pressure kit universal? If so, where are they available and how many $$? Thanks.

Best to get a unit built for your PHD. Seems like each manufacturer is just a little bit different. So best to look at a dealer that sells your brand of PHD. I have seen costs from $400-$600.

I hang mine from a limb in the back yard, works for me.

I made an easy one using a wood pallet and 2 2x4's plus an old ground rod. I like it cause i can move the entire thing with the forklift.

4x4s & some H brackets. About $20 and you would be all set.

Great idea! Dose the cyl make a big difference!?

If you are referring to the down pressure cylinder for the PHD, I kid you not when I say that it has saved me countless days of drilling time and I don't even drill that many holes.

I made something like MtnViewRanch but built it on a pallet like grsthegreat did.

hay..that looks familiar :laughing:

i just love the fact that i can move it around with the forks when shifting my storage area around between winter and summer use. I have so many implements that i have to swap those needing immediate use up to the front, and those that can be mothballed for 6 months to the rear.

pallets make it an easy chore.
