Pump Auger or Pipe Auger Drill Bits
There are 8 different versions or sizes of these rare
auger drills included here. Several have aux. guards or cutters attached
that could be sharpened and / or replaced. These
were mostly used by early settlers to make water pipes or pump housings.
I was reading one story where the early California settlers used a set of these
to bring down the largest of the virgin Redwoods or Sequoias down by Calaveras
back in the early days when they could not think of any other way to bring down
a 300+ ft. tall tree that was over 25' in Dia. It took them 20 some days
to destroy what had taken 2,000 or more years to grow, just so they could say
they did it. All appear to be
usable. Nice.

5' Auger Bit
I am not sure if this is anything more than an
early and primitive form of post hole digger or if it had some other special
purpose. It stands close to 5' tall, and the cutter is approx 3" in Dia.
Whatever it original purpose, it is large and graphic and deserves a corner or
wall to be hung on to illustrate how it use to be done.
