Does this only cut 6" diameter holes? Seems like that wouldn't be enough for a 4"x4" fence post where 10" diameter holes are the norm. Thanks for all the answers, I found this company makes an adjustable version with 6", 7" and 8" settings, which'll get me close to the old fencing rule "post hole diameter should be 3 times the post width".

Just used this product to install 35 4 x 4 x 8 pressure treated fence posts across the front of my property, much to the envy of a neighbor who used a clam shell type digger

That's it. If you want a 10" hole you buy a 10" auger or widen it by other means.

The hole ends up about 8". You can get 8" and 10" blades. I have dug many, many holes for 4X4 posts 3' deep including putting quikrete in some I have never known the need for 10" diameter holes for fences.

If you have a clay type soil (this doesn't work in sand or rocky soil) a hole larger than about 8 inches (which this ends up being) is more or less counter-productive...you don't want dug up (loosened) soil around your post. I loaned my out and can't get it back!

It makes a hole slightly bigger than 6", more like 7 or 8 inches. I found that the auger was great to make an easy to dig deep hole, and then if I wanted to widen it I simply shoveled away some of the edge.

It kind of adjusts to any width, the pole comes in pieces so you can use the poles normal widths to fit or you can take a hack saw to make the width just perfect if you choose. I'm sure the normal pole pieces will fit just fine

It is designed for a four inch post. Suppose you could gerryrig it. The lights are spectacular and a great size. Work great. Think it would be worth the effort. Lois

I'm not sure why I got this question. Jim Newell said "Yes, that's about the max." Looking things up I see that #6 should be about 0.1624 inches in diameter. That's between an eighth of an inch and 3/16ths. I have the Tekton 3400, an 18-inch tool. The action-arm on this tool has "1/4 - Capacity" stamped into the metal. The 18-inch tool will handle the #6-wire. If I were planning on cutting #6 wire I would buy the larger tool.

1/2" should do fine, will leave about 1/8" clear. If your gate post clearance is less than that, you could recess the post bracket by chiseling a slot, maybe get by with 1/4" or 3/8". Remember to leave little extra room though, post swell up when it rains.

Paul, after your question, I re checked. My blade Dia. is just under 10 ft. Not as advertised at over 12 ft. Also I did not get an adjustable tail like they say in the advertisement suggested. If you bought one and this is why you questioned the size, please let me know. All efforts will be made with Gudcraft to correct this. The blade size is most important to me. I can work around the other false advertisements. Please reply. Thank you. Kenneth BigelowWB8ZIQ_ken.1@netzero.com

The recommended hole size is 1 3/4 I had a 1 7/8" hole saw and tried it with an old sour cream tub to see if I could use that and not have to buy another hole saw. Have had no problems with the 1 7/8 hole in my hydroponics setup.

The size cut can mean many. You have to follow the products instructions. On the norm the diameter of the product has to over lap the actual hole.

On mine with an extra plate about 1/4" thick fastened to the fence for extra height, I can set the fence face 3 1/2" from the centerline of the mortising drill and chisel. So I can work to the center of a 7" wide piece of stock. I usually have it set pretty close and generally work to the center of a 3/4" thick piece.

So sorry! Didn't see this email until I started cleaning the mailbox today. If it's not too late.... post diameter is about 1.5 centimeters, or 5/8 inch. Don't know about other brands or what might be "standard". Hope that helps.

Minimum width...well, I've trimmed some pretty narrow strips off of 4" ceramic tile. I've trimmed some to 3 1/2" wide (1/2" of waste). When I get that close I've used nippers to break off the waste end because I can't really get a "bite" on a strip that narrow. A 1 1/2" strip, though, piece of cake! By the way, be sure to get a stone to finish your cut ends and to 'break' the edges. Cut tiles can be sharp!

The fence of this saw is approximately 1.75 inches. However a maximum height of 4 inches can be cut using the same fence height with the use of clamps. In other words, the blade still be within the angle guides for cutting a maximum height of 4 inches. The maximum width it can cut is approximately 4 inches, nothing more. I have had use it cut a 4x4 (dress) 2x4 (dress) and it worked fine. I just use it for small projects to cut a couple pieces nothing major.

I'm not sure what size post my solar light is on but the landscapers said it's a standard sized post. I think it is four inches but I'm not sure.

Total width is 13 inches. Max cut is 18 15/16ths you can cut any circle you want down to 2 1/4 inches although I wouldn't use it for anything under 6". Just keep in mind that anything larger then a 1/4 bit will throw off the scale. Multiple passes I stead of one cut is always a good idea with thicker materials. On the Dewalt side I would assume yes but worst case I sure it could be adapted or modified to work. Great jig!

The last hole in the collar that comes with the fence makes it 12" around. I had to buy an extra collar, and it had more holes and could be down to 10". However, there is room to punch more holes if necessary. As was noted by others, though, the collar with battery is fairly heavy and is about an inch wide, so not well suited for small dogs. I have the opposite problem - one of my dogs is an English Mastiff, and the collar barely fits around her neck at all.
