An auger drill is a tool used for boring holes into the ground. It consists of a helical screw blade, known as an auger, which helps to remove soil or other materials as it drills down. Auger drills are commonly used in construction, gardening, and geological exploration to create holes for posts, foundations, or soil sampling. These drills can be powered manually or by machines, depending on the size and depth of the hole required. Hand augers are typically used for smaller projects, while power augers are suitable for larger tasks, making them versatile tools for various applications.
