I need to dig 5 holes for 1m high picket fence - which of these tools works most effectively? I have a post hole borer which I inherited from my Dad. Ask around, you may find a friend/neighbour has one, and they are excellent tools to borrow (only needed occasionally, difficult to damage much). Mine is an open cylinder about six inches across and four inches high, with teeth on the bottom of the cylinder. There is then a T-shaped handle (about three feet long and high) attached the cylinder. Rotate the handle, the teeth dig into the ground and pack the soil into the cylinder. Lift it out, shake the soil out. Repeat. It's very easy to use, but nobody seems to have that design any more. |
