    Treestuff doesn't have the PCW winch stuff. It really doesn't matter who you order from, it all ships from the manufacturer. I want to say they're in Quebec? Engines are made in Thailand, it's a global product. ha <iframe width="560" height="315"...

    Ok so that was a bad example, but what if it was 100,000'? I'll have to do some more research, there must be some engineering principle that covers this. . .

    Yeah, they hit us with that in Fire School, that a man can pull the general equivalent of his body weight. You'd hope a guy would only tie a rope to a pulling vehicle with a knot once or twice before he got the clue :/: My portable winch has made me wish I had a 600'er of 1/2" stable braid...

    You and Jed are our resident assassins Rich. Pictures of a nice hinge up everybodys game. 8) I've had to bevel the ends of the logs like the old timers used to Stephan. Also had a guy with a cant hook follow along and roll it around obstructions. Sometimes it just turns into a mess though...

    haha, nice one Gary. Has anyone watched this one yet? There's some pretty cool stuff going on, but man, watch that guy at the end standing right in the bight. 2:1 pulling on a 4:1 with a mechanical winch, and dude is crotch level right in front of the block. Crazy. <iframe width="560"...

    The unit itself weighs 35 LBS dry. It's hefty.

    Agreed Jay, these things certainly have their limits, but they open up a lot of possibilities too. I've already saved multiple sore backs with mine. haha Cheers
