Given the number of auger bits that are available, it is often difficult to know which ones are going to be right for your projects. Therefore, you need to take the time to consider the purpose of the bits. What is it you are trying to accomplish? How large does the hole you bore need to be? Are you in need of small bits that you can use for woodworking? Are you looking for larger bits that you can use in the earth in outdoor projects?

You must fully think about your project to determine the bit, or several bits in many cases, which are going to be best suited for you. Once you have a better idea of how you will be using the bits, it becomes much easier to choose the right ones for your needs, whatever they might be.

For those who are working with wood, whether they are doing so on a small scale or a large scale, one of the tools that is going to be most beneficial to them is an auger. The auger is used for boring holes into wood. Of course, there are also other types of augers that are used for boring holes into the earth instead. The auger requires different sized and types of auger bits to work. These bits fit into the auger in a similar fashion to a drill bit fitting into a drill. In fact, they serve a similar purpose. In fact, many auger bits will fit into a typical drill.

Many companies are making auger bits today, and you can find them in a wide range of sizes, styles, and to suit different purposes. Some of the manufacturers include Joy Unlimited International, Ltd., Pacific Concord International, Ltd., Timberline, Irwin, and Westward.
