Remember when we used to hand-dig every post hole? I had a week in '08 that changed my mind.
We were putting in a split-rail fence on a farm near Springfield, and the ground was pure clay. After two days of busted spades and blisters, the owner let us use his old tractor-mounted auger. We finished the whole 300-foot run in an afternoon. Anyone else have a job that finally made you switch to a power tool?

Ever read that old saying about the right tool for the job? That clay story is the perfect example, some jobs just aren't meant for muscle alone.
