Using a drill bit without a pilot is a recipe for disaster.

Wasn't worried about the 3 phase. You can run a 3 phase motor in 1 phase with a vfd. Can get a vfd for about 50 bucks and the motor was free so I wasn't worried about it. Motor is of no use, though,...

See if you can find raw peanuts in the shell. Coons love them and I never caught a possum using them. The ones on youtube were eating shelled roasted peanuts probably salted. I never used those.
