Bush Auger Twist Drill with Dowel Iron
A classic bushcraft tool for drilling holes in wood and building sturdy wooden structures
If you enjoy building things outdoors, a bush auger twist drill is a really useful, almost indispensable, tool to bring on your trip.
With a twist drill, you can bore holes in wood and create strong joints, allowing you to build everything from tables and benches to shelter structures and fire stands – using materials straight from the forest.
The clever feature of this bush auger is the integrated dowel iron, which makes it easy to use a sturdy branch as a handle. When you insert the branch through the dowel iron, you get good power and control to drill holes in the wood.
Once you start using a twist drill at camp, you quickly discover how many possibilities it offers. Suddenly, you can build things that greatly improve the campsite.
A bush auger can, for example, be used to make:
- Tables and benches for the camp
- Joints for shelters
- Fire anchors and fire stands
- Ladders and fences
- Other small and large bushcraft projects
The twist drill doesn’t take up much space in your pack, but it opens up lots of creative possibilities if you enjoy working with wood in nature.
For many bushcrafters, it’s exactly this kind of tool that makes a trip to the forest extra rewarding – because you can build something yourself with simple means.
