Just checked today. 14.5", the thickest I've seen on my pond. Cecil, I didn't try to set a speed record, but I'll bet it took less than a minute for me to get the hole cut with the Lazer hand auger.
Good for you Scott. 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. Sharp blades.
