Yep I know, Just a minder that it ain't 3/8" cable so don't go and try to pull a biggon' or even something that is stuck in pack.
I am most positive you know all this, makes me feel better saying it.
Don't want to see any horror films on your YouTube.

With that set up go move that boulder you showed us and let us see whats under and behind.

That boulder we see in the video was moved with one of them new red cast steel comeaaalongs.
and there was two more new cumalongs in line to do it if that one failed Been rainin like a big dawg, we tend to burn a log the size of a minni van a day.

These mini boulder moving monsters are truly amazing. Been using them--many styles--for years. Hook up a nice ol' boulder and give'm there walkn' papers. Extra footprints SUCK anything gone or damaged?? Environutz just love to screw with ya but psfers just look and return?? usually?? CAUTION is the word of the day and your double barrel takes care a the rest, Thankfully I'm right in the middle of a couple a hundred acres of PRIVATE PROPERTY thats marked every 100 feet so no company of any kind through locked gates.--tons a au 2 u 2 -John

Those chainsaw winches are amazing... used one for many years..... the trick is lots of snatch blocks.

[CalGoldDredger]

Hey and lets not overlook that nice 3' chainsaw could come in right handy for clearing the trails and service roads.
I know I could have used one that size last spring, windy and trees down everywhere.
Even had one come down and block my exit in the middle of the summer.

that tree is nothing but 1 days worth of firewood for Leonards campfires!haha just ask Steve if that aint so!
