That really is impressive, Howard! I've honestly never seen anything like that. I have tried rear tractor mounted augers which take forever to connect properly and two-man augers which are really awkward, but this seems to be the perfect tool! I'm going to be checking with my local rental agencies to see if they have anything like that! Hopefully, Tyler got an extra helping of food at dinner for all that hard work, lol! Best to you all ❤️👍
Good Sunday Morning! to the Bradleys. All the very best to you as well. My sense is that we've got pretty good ground here. I'd have loved to put something like that to the test on the property we had in Langley which was considerably rockier. The folks we rented it from do not sell these commercially, so do let me know if you happen to come across a commercial manufacturer.
Ahhhhh - cute little Makena! Son Kyler is down at Nor-Val right now, and he's going to inquire as to whether they've distributed/sold any of these to equipment rental firms outside of the Okanagan area. If so, I'll let you know. It's a super impressive machine in terms of a standalone auger.
Hi Howard!!😀😀 The post hole auger does a great job. The only thing is you have to keep the auger spinning down while you lift it out of the hole so it clears the dirt from the hole. When he reversed the auger as he removed it allowed the dirt to stay in the hole. That's why he is now having trouble getting the post in. Otherwise you can use a hand post hole digger to remove the loose dirt from the bottom. It looks awful dry around there. Take care my friend!!😀😀 Logger Al
Great tips. We've got more postholes coming up, Do take care as well. Have an awesome weekend. You've lived a rich life. Would love to see more of your videos - sharing memories of your journey.
@@howardkettner I'm not much into talking videos. I'm always so busy that I just don't take the time to record the things I'm doing. I should do a little more and get some newer ones up on my channel sometime soon.
@@aldredske6197 You definitely should turn the camera on and capture those moments. Again, you've got some rich content and perspectives Al. Have an awesome rest of the weekend.
