I build custom treehouses and just got a 1" x 18" auger bit. It is by far the best auger I have ever owned. The three cutting blades smoothly rip through wood and don't rip your arm off when the drill gets bogged down when sunk fully into the wood. Also, the bit is extremely light in weight, like weird light, no bit compares.
They make very smooth holes, and slice through nails easily. Through.i didnt start bouncing on a nail, have to reverse out and drill next to it.right through em. I've used several of them from 3/4 to 1 1/2. They are w/o equal for the price. I'm an electrician. performance against an Irw.n, and ive only got one thing to say. I went through 12 nails that i knew of. I drilled an entire 2800sq ft house with (1) 3/4" nail chipper on a 12" 7/16 shank extension, in a high speed Hole Hawg.
------------------------------------------------------- I've got various sizes from 3/4" - 1 1 /2", 7 1/2" and 18" long. Also, you can re-sharpen them several times with just a flat file. I'll say this about all the WoodOwl nail chipper bits. I only had to sharpen it once near the end, because it was slowing down a bit. You can only tell you hit one from the snapping sound, and the shiny sheared-off metal in the hole when you're done. Though when the self-feed screw tip starts to go, its takes more and more effort to drive it through the wood, the more it gets damaged. Even @ full price (the prices go up and down, so watch for reductions), price vs. ---Anyone wanna buy my Irw.ns.--- Woof
