In all seriousness if I had a job I would be right on it. Handy tool.

I would probably make a few more mk2 would have different shaped buckets as this one was made out of the curved blade of a silage grab and doesn’t hold much material still works well mind

it will dig a 12 by 14” hole 5ft deep if I remember right

Thats a handy bit of kit then small holes that sort of size can be a right pain too small for a bucket and plenty big enough for a auger

Dug a tidy little hole 6foot 6 deep the ideal depth for a telephone pole (or so I’m told)

I’d have used a round auger for a round hole for a round pole

must be great for staunchion holes where they insist it has to be a square hole 1m3. It’s not like some Ancient Greek a couple of thousand years ago didn’t work out you can have the same volume of something in a cylinder as a cube....

But what happens when they try and pour the cube of concrete out of the mixer into the cylindrical hole, it won’t fit
