Jogging through You Tube on a rainy day here in New York and stumbled upon this video.  The last line makes the clip.  :D :D :D

He needs a Logrite cant hook in the worst way. Get rid of that clutzy thing he tried to use.

I bet it was awhile before that chunk of wood was made into boards.

What wood? I dident see any wood  :

The angle of the pull rotates the log into the squaring arms making the pull much more difficult. I had the same problem until I motorized the in/out action of the boom so I can always pull vertically - essential for big logs. That way my wife doesn't have to help ... at the mill.

use to make fire wood log turners like that hook years ago, it has been said, "poor man poor ways!" 
and I'm pretty sure he don't care much what we think ;D  nice log there anyway.  And it does appear that he has plenty of help 8)

I was gonna say something, but on second thought I think I'll just hold off ;D

That's not even a big can't !
I would have fliped it in a second with my peavy and been done with it .

I did something like that with my LT10.  Good post for someone just getting a manual mill.

I have seen that video on here before I think the guy is a forum member.

I have seen that log arch on here before in the background of another video or picture.

A shorter arm on that winch boom would turn it with less force and a lot less stress on the equipment.  After seeing the video, I told my wife I needed a wench to help me turn logs.  She wasn't amused.

I remember a Patrick F. McManus story along those lines (The Last Laugh, Outdoor Life) if any of you remember his articles. He claimed he didn't share his thoughts on needing a better winch, or a better wench, with his wife because "discretion is the better part of valor". :D

Too funny....In the time it took to make that video any one of us could have flipped that cant with a peavy, had it sawn into boards and loaded the next log and still had time and energy for a bit of mischief.....

[bedway]

Lucky for me the first time i called my wife in jest a "wench" she smiled. ;) For a split second there i wasnt sure if i should duck or run :D.
