I never liked those post hole diggers, a real pain to use tho mines a different brand..I'm unlikely to be using again.

Much prefer this sort.

What's your soil like there?

Here any post hole is an oh so slow nightmare. We use a pto on the back of a tractor driving a 12" auger. There's guaranteed big flints to knock the hole off course for a start. Doing our front fence I lost count of how many shear pins went on the auger.

Could do with one of those big heavy axe bladed, shovel type things for roots too.

A few weeks ago one of the other unit holders moved out, and dumped a load of stuff in his skip. I had a dig around as you do, and there was a plastic box full of water with some power tools. I dug this out:

thinking that at worst it might donate the mains flex as the one on my die grinder is breaking up around the end of the strain relief. I left it to dry out, and yesterday I tried it and it works just fine. I might take it to bits and clean it out before using it, but I just wish I'd grabbed some of the other bits, though I did get some plastic boxes for when I get time to sort things out, and some brand new bricks.

You wouldn't think I'm trying to clear some space out of my unit, would you?

That's just so you can cram some more treasures in.
