Well the Admiral drew the line today. I need to start working on the fence, even a bit every few days if I want to go fishing a lot. So.... I figure I can do a couple few holes every evening and get the poles concreted in and the fence up so in a month or so I would be close to done.
420 linear feet of Privacy White Vinyl fencing. 6' x 8'. Going to use the fencing from lowes. Figure with fence and deck on a couple of other things I have 60-70 holes to dig.
Anyhow I don't have a post hole digger and don't know anyone with one. I was looking into renting it when I need it but after 4-5 rentals it looks like I could just buy one for around $300 and then when I am done and the deck around the pool is done I could sell it or keep it.
Unfortunately, I don't know squat about Post Hole Diggers. I believe I will need, for various fencing types and other projects, a 6", 8" 10" and 12" Auger Bits. The Main fence posts are the PVC 5" x 5". Some say to do 10" holes and others do 12" holes.
None the less. I see some with 43cc up to 55cc's. I will most likely be digging the holes myself so it will have to be operated by a single person. Maybe I can rope a kid to help...... I will be going through dirt, sand, some clay and gravel/dirt mix. Will be hitting a few tree roots I am sure.
Depth will be Max 36".
These are the ones that I am looking at. I also don't mind ordering one and having it delivered from another source or brand. I say I would probably sell it, but you never know It wouldn't be a bad thing to keep it around for the future.
Somewhere around $300 is my budget.
