Description: |
As I understand it, the key to this auger handle is the semi-cylindrical "follower" (with the V-shaped notch), which is intended to rotate within the central metallic cylinder. This allows it to accommodate whatever angle is presented by the shank of the chosen auger bit, as it is trapped by the set-screw. |
