I originally bought the drill to customize so 1.5m deep round holes for the foundations of a wooden terrace. What is difficult to achieve with a spade, was almost a pleasure working with the auger. Since then, the drill is in use in the garden to create again and again to planting holes, foundations for posts, flagpoles, etc.. The quality of the drill is as far as I can tell, okay. The metal should be lightly oiled after use, so it does not rust because they are not here to stainless steel. The wooden pole is not painted, but now I do not want to see as a point of criticism. I would now drill missing if I do not have him! The award is in my opinion, also in order.
