son in law has stuck auger almost level with dirt,can you use pipe wrenchs to reverse and remove?
(quoted from post at 08:34:21 11/30/12) Buickanddeere.........and you've got HOW MUCH invested in your cadillac skid steer post hole digger??? I"ll keep my $300 "piece of junk" pto digger thank you.
I think we need a picture of your wooden frame...(quoted from post at 00:37:55 11/30/12) I get one stuck all the time. I have a little tractor that's too short in the drawers to pull an auger. I move the tractor back and forth an inch or so to enlarge the hole a little and then use a farm jack to lift it out. I have since built a wooden frame so I can stair step the auger into the ground. It had been grabbing like a screw until the tractor couldn't turn it anymore. Letting it down only about 6" at a time really helps.
(quoted from post at 11:31:18 11/30/12)P.S.........what I've never figgered out, you dig a 6"-hole and putta 6"-post in it and still don't have enuff dirt to tamp the post tite........

(quoted from post at 05:51:52 12/01/12)...machine that saves hours of time every time it's used is worth it.
(quoted from post at 05:59:56 12/02/12) Got a friend with an older Massey Ferguson tractor? if so, hook up the PHD to the MF, put PTO in the GROUND SPEED position, jack (at least) one rear wheel off the ground, put tractor in REVERSE and back auger out of the ground. (PTO reverses with trans.) Works like a charm!
(quoted from post at 08:04:00 12/01/12) You can take it as being " penny wise and pounds poor" in
equipment choices.
(quoted from post at 12:22:35 12/02/12) You are the one using the words "stupid" and
"trash".

You're correct. But reading between the lines in your statement, "Glad I'm not so cheap or poor to have to take extra time and extra work which makes the job more expensive then using good tools in the first place.", certainly gives me the impression you're an elitist that can't grasp that some people have to get by with what they can afford.
