Do a Google search on Continental Post Hole Digger, there's a short video of one on a Super C Farmall, smaller auger than the ones Dad had, he had 3. All Continental PHD's had an arched 3 inch pipe frame. Gravity down except in really hard ground, Dad stuck a 2x6 about 16 ft long over the gearbox and under the drawbar on the Super H to get through hard dry clay, Dad's 225# hanging off that 2x6 really made the SH bark. Two ropes used to run the digger, engage pto, auger turns, pull one rope unmatched the gearbox and auger and your digging, pull the other rope and a dog style clutch engages a cable winch on the top shaft and raises the gearbox & auger out of the ground. Dad started letting me did post holes when I was about ten yes old, used the '39 H then. Dad had a 24 inch diameter auger for planting trees. I'd guess we dug well over 1000 holes with the thing. And some lucky SON of a Gun got it on Dad's last auction for $10. None of this square hole nonsense, or mud holes collapsing.
