Need to know if there is any site that explains, or, translates those numbers on the shafts into the actual sizes? I have a pile to go through before sharpening them. Or if anyone just knows, that would be great. Would help a lot, thanks all.
It's the number of sixteenths of an inch. ie. auger #8 = 8/16" = 1/2"

This is the case for a lot of old woodworking tools. You can always check with a pair of calipers.
Awesome help guys, thanks! Makes a lot more sense.
It is the diameter of the auger in 1/16ths of an inch.
