Yep, $42 in Bunnings, easy as drilling by hand.
oh they can be quite a handful, particularly if they hit rocks

Hi Martia I have used one and as long as the soil is not too hard you should not have a problem.....

Make sure u r wearing knickers & have a firm grip at all times, coz if u strike a root at full bore, u will end up with ur ankles up around your ears. xoxo

I would never attempt to dig my own hole.

Hi Martia
I have used the corkscrew type, and it depends on the soil type and hardness as to how easy or hard it is. Clay soils if too dry are hard as rocks, but too wet and they are claggy and hard to turn and pull out the waste.
which ever, you will get a good shoulder work out!

Really
I'm off to Bunnings
I haven't been in that position for a very long time
Martia: Hmmm I think you are right gotta lot of holes to dig! better get the hydrolics on the Fergie 35 seen to.
I used to use them in the constuction of carports. All I did was hire one from one of the many hire places. If you hire it on friday then you returned it on the monday.They are quite good, but you need to strike a pose so you don't twist your spine like a yoga contortionist.
