Beschreibung
An auger is a boring tool used in a variety of woodworking trades, such as carpentry, wheelwrighting and ship-building, to bore long deep holes. Part of the auger bores the bottom of the hole as the tool goes round and another part holds the shavings and discharges them when the tool is pulled out. This auger was used by the donor, a carpenter and cabinet maker at Kidlington, Oxfordshire.
