Post hole diggerAny

[DirtyMike]

Anyone in Bismarck/Mandan own one but aren’t using this weekend?

Manual or auto?

 

[DirtyMike]

I only have four to dig in so manual is fine.

I have a couple manual ones, but couldn’t get them to you till this evening. Out at deer camp but I’m going out there today anyway. Can bring em in if you can’t scare one up here 8n town.

Rent an earth auger for $25-30 and save yourself the time and hassle.

Just use your ice auger. Thats what we use to put in corner posts for pastures

buy a $25 unit and keep it - you are going to need it again

I borrowed one on occasion for like two decades before I bought one

I was a moron - I use it every couple years - sans hassle of borrowing

Well that's the dilemma I found myself in. I have four posts to put in and even the fanciest of these tools is around $40. I just didn't want it to be sitting in the way for the rest of my time here.

Ours is at the farm or you certainly could have used it. We don't have enough room in town either to store all that we use once in a great while.
Did you have a locate done so you don't hit any wires?

 

[DirtyMike]

Looks like I tracked one down. Thank you to everyone for your offers. PM's have been returned.

any wires?

I did. The majority of the fence went in last year so I knew there weren't any wires there but I called to cover my ass. I have one section to finish off between the house and garage. Then the pups can roam free.

I have one of these in my shed ... you are more than welcome to it

I brought mine in and can drop it off if you want it.

And one of those skinny shovels for postholes too. Fence stretcher on my UTV if you need it.

 

[DirtyMike]

I appreciate it Bobkat! I think I found one for use though. If anything changes in the next couple hours, I'll let you know.

N or. Had to bring it in to dig a flagpole concrete base, when I get time to do it.

That's cruel to offer one of those. Whoever created this type of digger must've also invented the flat screwdriver.
