Budget hand to drill auger conversion.

[Springbuck1]

I think these are just so great an innovation, such an obvious and somewhat low-tech solution. But my 18V Ryobi is too good a drill to replace, and not quite good enough a drill to get me through a day of drilling holes with the 8" auger I have.

I keep getting temped to design a smaller auger that uses some form of standard utility knife blades. I can't stand how hard they gouge you for replacements.
