DIY Manual Post Hole Auger (4K)

[tsbrownie]

I made one similar to that except I cut a disk with a hole saw and then cut a slot and bent to make the cutting edge. I welded a piece of HSS planer blade to the cutting edge so it hods up better. I used a 1/2" rod about 3' long and use my big hog drill that only turns 400 rpm.

I have thought about making a second, small auger head the way you described. Do you have a video on how you did it? Thanks.
