Our trio of tools is perfect for any log project that uses sawdust spawn. The trio comes with a standard angle grinder adapter, a 12mm drill bit, and a thumb-press log inoculation tool with ribbed anti-slip handle. (Watch the video below for details on how to use each product!)

*Note: This drill bit will not work with plug spawn. You can find our 8.5mm drill bit for plug spawn here.

Optional add-ons:

Caring for your inoculation tool:

Sawdust spawn residue can build up in your tool, making it feel sticky or causing the plunger to freeze. If this happens, soak in hot soapy water for 30 minutes, then push down on the head of the tool to loosen any debris.

Periodically check the head of the tool to make sure it is not coming unscrewed. The tool can be tightened by using a large flat head screwdriver. Insert the screwdriver into the groove on the tip, hold onto the head and lightly twist the screwdriver until tight.

This made my life so much easier. Do yourself a favor, use sawdust spawn!

Thanks for the review, Ian! We're so glad you are enjoying everything so far! Sawdust spawn is a great way to grow many mushrooms.

Great tools

These tools on an angle grinder made log innoculation an enjoyable experience rather than frustrating! Highly highly recommend getting a corded angle grinder vs a battery powered one. I initially got a battery powered one (and not a cheap one by the way) and it just didn't have the consistant power that a corded one can provide. The battery powered one kept getting stuck (battery was fully charged) and I had to pry the tools out of the log and in turn kind of destroyed parts of the log. Once I switched to a corded one I had no issues. Very fun project, will probably innoculate more logs next spring!

We really appreciate the kind review. We couldn’t do it without customers like you.

Worth to money

These tools worked great for my log project. Designed for the job, and I imagine without them I could have gotten pretty frustrated.

Glad to hear it, Rudy! Thanks for the review.

Great Starter Pack!

Getting this set is the way to go when you get started. The angle grinder attachment makes the job go by so much faster, and the stopper on the drill bit gives you precision every time.

Personally I dont like the thumb release inoculator tool, I prefer the palm press ones---but its good to try other models out!

Nice set

Quick delivery, quality tool set!

Thanks, Elizabeth! We really appreciate your support.

Works great

I used to try to put sawdust spawn in with a funnel and dowel rod, but this kit makes it super fast. Although I hate to spend money on a gadget for every task, I think this will increase my mushroom production with little extra effort.

Thanks so much for sharing, David! We really appreciate your support.

Tools of the trade

The right tools make a job go a lot smoother. The drill bit just eats into the wood and the inoculation tool works smoothly. Since this is my first foray into mushrooms I was hesitant to get the set, but I'm glad I did.

We're so happy you're enjoying the tools, Rob! Thanks for the great review.

Simple Excellence

I love the tool - works exactly as you’d expect. I found that “double tapping” worked best for me to get a good compact spore injection into logs.

Must have for log inoculation

This is the easiest and fastest way to inoculate logs if you own an angle grinder! Makes fast work of logs and easy enough that I’ve had 8th grade students drilling holes!

Awesome product

Time Saver!!

This set is a must have for innoculating any larger quantity of logs. With the right angle drill attachment and bit you can drill the holes as fast as you can possibly move from spot to spot. Way better than a normal drill and drill bit setup. The inoculation is what takes a while, so if you are able to get an extra set of hands to help you I highly suggest ordering an extra inoculation tool to go along with the set. This way you both have one. I've done close to 100 logs in the past two years with this set and have had zero issues.

Stainless Steel Set & Customer Service

Log inoculation tool, angle grinder adapter, and drill bit are all stainless steel. Inoculation tool is made in USA with a stiff plastic handle, easily fully cleanable, and will not rust/discolor compared to brass. Machinist recommended; admittedly researched/asked for alternatives.
Save time, money, and distress by making North Spore your primary source for mycology. North Spore consistently delivers wonderful customer service, including lower prices than competitive memberships, and discounted bulk orders. As a chef whose been forging and growing fungi for years, an absolute thank you to everyone at North Spore for your help & resources.

Game changer

I did 1000 plugs last year with a drill, this year bought this set, WOW what a difference, angle grinder is so fast it's scary. Inoculation tool works great, saving money on spawn also, it's all good. I bought a Ryobi 18 volt angle grinder, it did not have enough power, had to return it, a 7amp electric grinder is all the power you need.

Works great!

Really happy with this set. I can inoculate a bunch of logs super quick. Very straight-forward to use.

Very cool!

These trio allowed us to drill and inoculate more logs in much less time. Now I feel like we will be able to really get ‘shrooming! The tools will be used primarily for a school project and they are of very high quality materials and will no doubt be able to use for years and rears.

Huge Time Saver!!

I'm so happy I invested in these tools. Drilling with the angle grinder was so smooth and easy. The quality of the adapter, drill bit, and inoculation tool is top notch. We inoculated about a dozen Stiitake logs and and still have sawdust spawn left over. I will also say when we called in for a few question you guys were very helpful. My son is getting into this for a school project and we are already looking for the next batch of logs. Great Product!!

Great set

I've only drilled a few holes to test the angle grinder adapter and bit and have to say I'm really impressed with how well everything works.

Great tools!!!

I will be buying all of my growing supplies from north spore moving forward. They are top notch! Great selection, great service and shipping was fast !!!

So helpful

We innoculated 50 logs, and once you're going above 10 logs I think you might regret not having these tools! It makes the process much more enjoyable and relaxed.
Our order was missing one of the tools, and Northspore promptly refunded us. Will be buying more spore next summer!

All the log tools you need!

This tool set made log inoculation a breeze. When you have these tools, all you need next is some sawdust spawn and food grade wax! This is way too easy :)
