If anyone is interested in the setup musky described Scheels has the Eskimo hand auger (6”,7”, and 8”) on sale on their website with free shipping. Amazon has a good price on the 24” ion extension. I went with the Milwaukee 2803 and got a free battery included (3 total) from acme tools. Found the clam plate at mokiw.com for $60 free shipping (need a paypal account to buy it so should be legit). Those were the best prices I found with a quick search. Didn’t look extremely hard but all prices seemed reasonable. Thanks again musky for all the info. I know I’m late to the game on this setup. Hope it does the trick!
