Drill for the Barber's traps

At the beginning of last year, I bought a garden drill with different (three) attachments and a meter in the "withers". I gave it to the craftsmen with a request to make something comfortable and camping. I chose this drill only because of the nozzle with a diameter of 8 cm, which I was going to use. The guys did a great job and made me a fairly light and mobile drill, only 50 cm in size.

To be honest, I didn't expect such a positive result from using the drill , fast, convenient, reliable. I won't talk about the forest floor, and a small garden shovel was so clearly suitable for it. Stony soil is also drilled by pushing stones apart

One glass, with good soil, takes 1-2 minutes

I have already written about this many times in the section about soil traps. In stores for the garden, vegetable garden and other floriculture sold under the name planting cone.

Is this cone only suitable for light, loose soils (sandy loam, for example)?

I'm here (through the forum, in my opinion at Konung'a), the year in 2011-2012 ordered something similar, only it was non-removable and titanium - I still use it

On the contrary, it is unsuitable for light soils (dry sand).

It would be interesting to design a drill driven by a screwdriver.

The screwdriver, I'm afraid, will not work.

The screwdriver, I'm afraid, will not turn.

The batteries won't pull?

More like an engine.
But this is all my theorizing...

And again, on what soils to put if on forest, then it should be normal. But black soil, not to mention the soils of African savanna, is likely to be a problem.

I will share my experience, for 5 years I have been using a drill for installing cups, the design that Sergey nyu made is the lower part of a pipe, it seems 50 mm(here, depending on the volume of the glass, you can change it), which is cut off at an angle, so that a sharp edge is obtained. above, a handle in the form of the letter "T" is welded to it, made of a bar or rebar(the bar is lighter). it is very easy to use it, we take it by the handle and press it hard into the soil, while turning it, then we roll out the resulting funnel. after we pull out, insert the glass and go further, the soil that is in the pipe can be knocked out by tapping it from a stone or tree, or you can knock it out from the inside with a stick. With a certain skill, it is possible to reach a speed of 20-30 seconds per cup. Such a drill is very comfortable to work in stony soils, it wedges between the stones and pushes them apart. they can cut down the roots of trees. In the meadow, it enters like butter, but then it is usually knocked out into the ground for a long time(especially if it is soaked in water). It is harder on dense and clay soils, but everything is solved by strength and stubbornness. Alas, I didn't find any normal photos of the drill itself, here's what it is, I hope it will be, the design and how to work with it are approximately clear. By the way, it is convenient to use it as an alpenstock while walking, especially on a steep slope or snow.

As with any tool, the most important thing is the quality of steel.
