I guess eventually you had to do it to let them understand.... Anyway good video! Impact drivers/wrenches are fun, sleek and cool, but sometimes a drill is much much better
Obvious outcome. But thanks for trying it anyway. Basically the impact socket driver is screwing the auger in to the ground, whereas a drill at a constant high speed, and with enough torque is extracting the material. Big difference. Great video as per usual. Well done squire.
we already discussed this in the previous video. but the most obvious tool for the average joe to use is an sds plus drill. and preference being the most powerful one which is the milwaukie sds max. then you need the 3:1 reduction gearbox to slow it down a bit. this requires some at home fabrication to get the adapter to the gearbox. to fabricate (or repurpose) a large handle to steady it. and to then connect the output side of the gearbox to the auger it probably isnt too difficult if you can find and source the right parts. and that really is the most difficult step. then attaching them.. well best if you can weld or braze them together... but this is not a precision tool. far from it. so the tolerances they don't need to matter very much. so failing that bodging them together with some basic skills or fixings will probably also work too. just not be quite as durable for a longer tool lifetime this type of solution will be a fraction of the price of the special purpose tool. maybe only $100 or $159 usd excluding the price of the sds.... and of course can keep on using the sds for other normal stuff
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL heh i did suggest the milwaukie SDS max and NOT the makita for a reason... because it is indeed a pretty challenging task for a cordless tool. so then you probably want the best option (if going cordless). which just doesn't seem to be the makita in this case. can't win them all. certainly a good thing to know about those specifics on why the makita just isn't suitable. thing is that other guy already is doing this with an SDS (of some sort) and it worked out well enough for him to recommend it. and the reduction gearbox itself will also reduce the torque being presented to the tool (by a factor of 3 in his case, but I have also seen many other ratios gearbox, for which of course you will trade off the max auger speed, when the SDS maxes out at ~approx 500rpm). personally i would just try forget the cordless aspect for the moment. and try a different type of SDS, like a cheap wired one. that you doesn't mind abusing / cheaper and might have more grunt. i know that goes against the whole 'cordless everything' mentality.... by doing it in stages to acutally get to the point to have made up such a gubbins. then it could afterwards be tried on some cordless version later on. in retrospect. Without it being such a waste of time. Then again didn't you already buy your own special makita tool for this. So I suppose not much reason to go around messing about with homemade solutions like that. No video then :( (unless some other youtubers try it, on some other channel) 🙂
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL I don't doubt that the torque limiter would prevent them from being used with an auger, but I do use mine with hole saws and a paint mixer all the time - works great for those usages.
I have thick clay soil and tried it with a Ryobi hammer drill (the cheap $40 one). Didn't work. Tried the Ryobi impact driver. It moved it a bit further into the soil but stopped soon after. Tried an impact wrench. Didn't work. Tried the massive brushless hammer drill ($200) and got it a decent anount further before I realized the the auger bit was firmly stuck in the ground and I couldn't back it out
Kudos for putting together the demonstration. It was never going to be a win for the impact. You're a brave man opening up Pandora's Box for further auger driving challenges :O Someone is bound to say "router" !
loving your channel man, iv just entered into the XGT stuff! so far so good. will be gathering a few more bits and pieces at the Mystery Creek field days!
I used a impact driver once with a drill attachment didnt have a drill at the time with a wood arbour 1 1/2 bit that was a nightmare the noise levels from the impacting was almost unbearable not recommened
Can you please explain why there are 7/16 hex impact wrenches, then? And can you also explain why a 1" auger bit on a 7/16 impact wrench will get you much further drilling into a tree stump than a 1" auger bit on a drill? But not a 6" auger into earth? What are the physics behind this?
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL Yeah hope they will. Getting a makita is just far too expensive for me. Dewalt is $600 for skin, but with makita I have to pay close to 1400 for skin and batteries :(.
Would love to see this with the Makita 40v SDS HR003GZ - or whatever the latest Makita 40v SDS drill is. The larger socket could be great vs a 1/4" socket on the impact wrench. If you manage, please try it one different modes
Every time he touches that drill or impact the base just above the battery below the handle flexes with that little bit of pressure that looks sketchy to me how stable is that base
Metal on metal banging would be like a brass bell dinging 2900 times a min or what it does on impacking the dtw700😵😬😬😬😬i think the mud soaks up the noise or have you edited the sound reducing the tang
The camera microphone cuts out really loud noise. But it didn't really sound like a bell. It was super loud and unpleasant, and all the vibration caused a bit of a liquefaction effect.
It's hard to capture the actual loudness of tools on RUclips due to the camera and due to me usually turning down the sound on power tools so that people don't complain that they are too loud.
...since the Makita is strong but not the strongest drill and the trigger is only adjustable by your finger: What do you reckon about using a strong machine capable of Bluetooth changes? Set the settings on the lowest speed (min and max) so that you can fully press the trigger and there's no risk of Kickback or speeding up issues. I think the Milwaukee OneDD2 or the Bosch GSR 18V-150 could work...
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL I didn't talk about an impact driver/wrench but about some strong drill which is adjustable by Bluetooth :) (sorry, should have been more clear: I was just sharing my thoughts about the test before with the 40V-Makita drill)
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL true... still very tempting (obviously no one else has a specific tool for that auger). I wonder how many people break their drills just because they're loving your videos and wanna play around, too 😂
im surprised it even went in at all. the mass of the auger is way too much for that impact to have a good effect. most of the energy just goes into the tool rather than into the earth.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL I have both. My father was a fan of Makita but I have switched to Ozito PXC and having used both see it as a huge step in the right direction. 👍
The 40v drill is such a beast, was looking through the Makita JP site and they list it as 150 Nm but its listed as 140 Nm on the UK site. Is there a made in Japan model that is more powerful than the one the rest of us get?
I dunno but in the 00s when Sony had a widely reported defect in its PS2 called "disc read error" they continued to ship US models with the bad component for several years while Japan market units used a different component. (and they charged $125 to repair units that were out of warranty) In this case it might just be sloppy documentation or spec testing by Makita. You know the little 18v handheld blower? I have the original version. Recently bought an 8 tool kit, it came with the redesigned model that has a noticeably smaller body. Same RPM. They rate it higher in both CFM and MPH. However next to the old one, the new one is weaker.
I watched the other auger vids on patreon, so I missed the entire 'would an impact wrench do it' discussions. Not going to lie, had no idea or expectation of whether it'd work or not. There was no 'intuitive' answer to me. It wasn't even a question I'd ask, even if only out of curiosity. Only that if an impact did work, it'd be amongst the worst options.
😁🤟i knew it wouldn't work ha some people just dont get how tools work ie impacts vs a drill 🤣🤣👏👏👏👏thanks for this 1 more or less impacted straight away and deffinintly not better for ya wrist or tool parts /noise levels👍

What the f*** are you doing man seriously that thing is for tightening and losening bolts and for driving leg bolts and screws! If you drill with it you destroys it, but its your consequense not mine😡😡😡😣😣

Great vid
Why not try this with makita angle grinder or router, at 30'000 rpm? Of course mixer would suit better.. :D
Rotary hammer too please. Or a chainsaw on its side, or anything else that spins.
grinders have high rpm but nearly no torque to turn the auger, drills are basically the opposite.
You would be needed if a new wrist
Try it by attaching it to a motorcycle rear wheel, a power washer, a multi tool, and pack of mentos.

before watching: I think the auger will snap (not made for this torque) or move very slow.
I think the impacts will just flex the auger and not actually turn it into the soil much at all

Sounds like ill have to go get that dewalt version of makita's auger.
What Dewalt version?
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL DCD470. Appears to be the same tool apart from those specialised handles makita has.
Exactly. No one is making one like this except Makita. Don't try it without a similar handle extension because you will regret it.
I imagine Milwaukee and Dewalt will copy this idea soon if you're not in a hurry.

I’ve used my Bosch 18v hammer drill and it was just fine.
Yep! I thought so!!
Thought about doing this with a hilti sds drill with a clutch
Can you use an 18V drill with these or are those not tough enough?
That's a cute little auger.
Every time he touches that drill or impact the base just above the battery below the handle flexes with that little bit of pressure that looks sketchy to me how stable is that base
It's designed to flex at that point to help limit vibration to the battery.
Does earth auger work on Makita 40v rotary hammer?
Next try the auger on the 36v lawn mower 😆. That would be a sight to see.
