Off Topic Quick auger loss prevention trick

[blackeyes]

Not sure if anyone else has had this happen, I tighten it pretty tight, the screw that holds my auger to the clam plate will sometimes loosen. Not sure if from travel vibration of what. I always check it just in case but here is the trick I have done to hopefully prevent an accidental loss of the auger. A simple zip tie around the shaft and the tightening knob.

Good idea, I check mine regularly and I've found it to be loose once or twice.
