Be really nice as a tractor attachment at "tractor attachment scale." Plant entire Forests, dramatically increase the growth prospects for every type of tree and bush imaginable. Eliminates the need for hydraulic fluid and *typical fuel*(battery instead of diesel.) Use your tractor as a power supply mechanism for keep the battery at a constant state of charge and from a simple hand held to commercial grade. 25 gallons of diesel might last a full season ... but again as an attachment "in case of dramatic battery degradation." If the battery lasts for a decade or more without permanent impairment could definitely change the game for all sorts of activities well beyond gardening to shall we call it "True Homesteading" where a single tool has a multitude of uses. (flood control, post hole, foundation work, "ditch witch" etc etc)

You can buy an auger bit that will fit any drill for $10 any any hardware store or amazon. Your drill is probably more powerful than this thing and it's way easier to hold on to with it's L shaped handle. The only thing you are missing is that stupid shovel piece that doesn't seem to be doing anything. At first I thought it helped stabilize the bit when you start the hole, but it didn't seem to do much of anything. Most auger bits you buy have the end of the bit stick out a few inches past the blades at the end so you can center your hole and stabilize the bit while digging.

I'm not so sure about this. Is it a shovel or a planter? Whether my skepticism is warranted or not I didn't hear you mention the following design feature. While this looks pretty much like a 2" auger bit in a drill, if you are not mindful, this setup can snap your wrist. This device is cylindrical and at worst will just spin in your hand. A good safety feature. The shovel attachment is surely helpful breaking through things. I have no doubt it is a good flower planter and this seems to be what it is intended for anyway. One gripe: this and other tools use proprietary/non standard batteries. I hate this. I wish these one off tools would license another battery. The Rotoshovel looks like a Milwaukee battery. I wish it did, because I have plenty of these with more amp hours too.
@OldAndGettingOlder3 жыл бұрын
@Christian Heller my guess as to why it isn't is 1) if it had a pistol grip like a drill it would then be a drill, and 2) by not being a drill it is different. They can market different. They can't market "look at us we're a new drill on the market", and 3) an auger in a drill can snap your wrist if you're not mindful of the torque. It's cylindrical body isn't likely to snap your wrist. If one wants a pistol grip then just buy an auger bit for the drill you likely already have.

@justfellover4 ай бұрын
Without the shovel blade, 100% of the torque produced by the tool will be applied to your wrist. That still appears to be a problem. Notice how the demonstrator feels the need to put his left hand on the body of the tool where no handle is provided. A pistol grip and/or left handle would have prevented this, but they used a straight handle like a manual screwdriver, which most American workers refuse to use. A good auger has speed control and only gently drops dirt at the edge of the hole. No "shield" necessary.

You could break the soil with any slip chuck drill, auger bit with extensions then easily scoop out the dirt as well.

Not sure how the soil differs in the northeast vs. southeast PA, but we have two garden auger bits, one smaller one like this one and a larger one for gallon pots and they both cut through our rocky clay very well. I use a cheaper ryobi hammer drill with the side handle to help hold the sucker because those auger bits definitely want to fling you around if you hit a rock. They have saved us a ton of time with bulb planting. I'd suggest giving it a try with one of the cheaper auger bits on amazon if you're curious before investing in a purpose-made tool like this which i'm sure comes at a premium. Just go easy, because if you're wailing on the throttle when an auger hits a rock you're dislocating your shoulder.
