can you post a link?

I have the drill already...

76, I did this, last year using what I had laying around. I cut the handle off mine, and welded a 1/2" solid rod in the auger. Make sure the rod is straight and your weld is even all the way around, or it will wobble so bad you won't be able to start a hole. I'm going to add a frisbee to it before the ice hits this year. I got lucky by not losing my auger through the ice. laugh I punched 7 holes through 11" of ice before my battery died.

I could drill around 15-20 holes on one lithium-ion battery. I have an older Mora auger and a 18V Ryobi drill with high/low. You have to use low or it wont drill.

So, heck yea bring on the ice.....h.h.
