I found thread_library.scad
The auger.scad code, as it is, uses the auger.stl (or _screwplate) as the
source of the auger shape.
Currently the auger_screwplate.stl is a bit broken, and is split in halt for
printing. Looks like this (I've rotated it, it is normally flat):

Those brown lines are the broken bits. But seeing I managed to print one of
these http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:27854 some time ago it may work.
As it sounds like you don't want all the other bits, servershim, tubemount,
drivemount etc.
Back to basics.
I presume you want to 3D print the auger?
What type of printer do you have? What slicer software?
It would be easier to make a new auger than try to work with the existing
.stl file.
The important parameters are, outside diameter, diameter of the central
cylinder, length of the auger.
Since parameters are defined here:
module auger() {
cylinder(h=96, r=4, $fn=24);
trapezoidThread(
length=118,
pitch=26,
pitchRadius=8,
threadHeightToPitch=0.70,
profileRatio=0.20,
threadAngle=10,
RH=true,
clearance=0.1,
backlash=0.1,
stepsPerTurn=48
);
}
It looks like that is what the original author used, it appears s/he
exported the auger, split it in two and rotated it for printing, then
chopped the end to length.
So if you give me the length of the auger you want, and how the ends should
be (flat?) I should be able to produce one.
Presumably also split in half for printing in a FFF (ie Reprap) style
printer?
