I guess another PIF if we do this.....
ha ha... this is why i bought this auger to make an electric one out of it... but i never got around to it... i looked at many models and this one seemed the best starting point... it uses the 8" swede bore blades

I love the one I made, the first guy I showed it to bought the 2nd one. I can run 24" of ice in 20 seconds off the truck battery, no gas, starts every time, can run it in the tent....there is nothing better as far as I am concerned.

Funny too, when I saw your auger and asked if it was gas, I was going to give it to Mudbug

Absolutely! Try that with a stinky gas one!

Dave if you have a cordless drill, I can make a free adapter for you

Ken, this thread is a brilliant idea! Thanks for putting this together.

I will take a stroll around the cave and see what I can come up with to pay it forward!

I have 2 PIF's

First up is a Princess Auto Trailer dolly; like the one on the picture, but maybe not exactly the same. Due to weight and size it is for Calgary pick-up, but I may be able to meet partway.

http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/pr...=1294381589725


The second PIF is I'm offering up a 1 hour professional plumbing/heating service call; within Calgary again. Any parts extra if necessary; at regular prices (no higher, nor any lower than normal prices for parts).

First "I'll take it " applies.

Wow nice offer, very kind.
I got a phone call today from the Distributor I used to work for, they want me back and I know they need some more people as well.
Call me tomorrow and I will see if I can help you out.
