Need help with an ice auger (won't be long)

[DL13521]

I have a manual ice auger that has a blade that is bent. Anyone know of someone in the Rochester area that repairs them? Thanks, DL

What kind of auger almost be more worth while to replace the blades all together.

just get new blades, they are pretty cheap. once they are bent they are junk...

Try this post on Iceshanty.com. However, I third the motion for new blades.

It is the lower half of the main auger. Not the blades. It is a Strike Master

Fish 307 has a blade swap.

just buy a new section but would be cheaper to just replace with ...ive tried a phew times so sharpen my blades on both my 5 ind 8 inch and can never get a good edge it just spins on the ice after im done..

Thanks guys for the help. Ended buying a new one on ebay for $20.00 plus shipping. It is getting to the point that not many things are worth repairing anymore. cheaper to buy a new one. Thanks again. DL

O you bent the auger shaft itself. Could try heating it and bending it and straight with a vise and some loving with a big hammer

It would never be the same. Buying a newer used one was the right choice. Once their bent, they just don't work right even if you think you got it back to shape.
