You must supply your own drill.

I own 7 augers that I purchased from Custom Auger, including a few of their high end industrial models.

There is abig diference in theirs compared with the less expensive others sold on Amazon and hardware stores.

The difference is the cutting edge. It is made of much heavier steel.

Their service is beyond excellent. They ship on the same or next business day by Priority Mail. I usually get them in two or three days. You can't beat Tom and Becky. They are a family husband and wife business.

If you want the auger to last, buy from Custom Auger. If you want it for two or three holes, the cheap ones "MIGHT" do.

I use this for fertilizing trees, using a corded very heavy duty 1/2" drill to drive it. This auger seems to be very durably constructed, heavy and securely welded. I expect it to last much longer than the previous auger I owned. I would have liked to see a few more turns of spiral around the shaft, but this design is quite serviceable, if only you need to lift it more frequently to clear dirt from the hole. I think this product is an excellent choice for anyone wanting a durable auger.

Well built. Very strong. I used it to drill 25 holes, 18 in. deep in heavy wet clay in the Red River Valley. My corless drill did`nt have enough power so I rented a big plug in unit. The auger shows no sign of wear.
