Posthole Digger Used post hole diggers

The most important part on an aug is the tips. .

I just bought a Work Force from TSC - my first PHD - so am an admitted novice. But the replaceable spiral tip on mine looks a helluva lot stouter than the replaceable cutting edges. I'm wondering if that rental place had a different kind of auger than I just bought?

The tips needed to be replaced every other use for legal items. They also needed to put new chains on every time the saws went out. I treated them like drill bits. If it takes longer then you think it should then replace things and see. If it seems good then keep on going. It's only a hole in the ground. I think that the softer metals keep their sharpness better but for a shorter time. The harder ones get dull but last longer. It might have to do with the ground. We have blow sand. Used to be a sea when my mother in law was young.

But like I posted years ago. I learned on a Farmall Super MTA. There was only a few thousand made. It's like learning to shoot with a 44.
