Mechanical Auger
This was my first project at the engineering level.
Seeing people toil hard in the fields nearby to dig holes for planting saplings, I along with four other guys decided to build a hand driven mechanical augur.
The simple device uses epicyclic gear train for higher torque at the drill .
