Digging holes to concrete fence posts

Only removing the loosened masses by hand is still awkward. The fingertips do not enjoy the work.

There are grasping sticks available in janitorial supply stores ...

Gloves?

Gloves?

Of course, I'm wearing some. But they stop helping relatively quickly :)

That all sounds very complicated and not productive. You can certainly pre-drill with the 120mm drill bit, but the actual hole should then be drilled correctly with a 200mm or 240mm drill bit.

With DN 200 I was always able to clear the hole problemlos so far

If you have to start crooked because of the big stones, it will eventually get difficult. Do you know someone with a hole spade?

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone with a hole punch. I think if I were to use a drill bit with a larger diameter, I would more often get stuck on thicker chunks. Does anyone have a tip on how to best align the sleeves when embedding them in concrete? I have now built something out of [Kannthölzern] and then aligned the sleeves with clamps. There must be a clever solution for this....
