Home made blade guard
Has anybody made a blade guard for a 7" SM Lazer hand auger? Cabela's is out and there are 14.95 there. Seems like you could make one cheaper out of some pvc pipe.

Mr D
go over to lowes and pick up one of these paint mixing bucket. http://www.lowes.com/pd_194347-84240...cket&facetInfo= or Home depot: http://www.homedepot.com/Paint-Paint...specifications+ The dimensions of the bucket are 9 inches high and 9 inches in diameter so it will work for up to 9 inch augers. Take off the handle of the bucket. Drill a couple of 1/4 inch holes across from each other at the top of the bucket. Then, take a bungee cord. Drop the auger into the bucket, hook the bungee cord into one of the holes, run over to the center of the auger, and take a wrap around the auger and hook the bungee into the other hole in the bucket. You have your shield for about $4. Be safe Roger Last edited by REW; 12-31-2012 at 08:06 PM. |

When the wife goes shopping, go to the kitchen cupboard and look for a nice tupperwear bowl that fits your auger. Drill two holes on the edge for a bungee cord. Good Luck or R.I.P.

Both really good ideas. I might try a garage sale rather than the wife's bowl supply--there's no "lucky" in my nickname. . .
