You probably have more weight to bear down on it too. Cecil, probably! But, with the Lazer augers, you don't put weight on it, all I needed to do is put my hand on top to steady it.

Whatever you say Scott. If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
