Had a log jack that a friend gave to me. He told me it didn't work. I use my Timberjack all the time and couldn't understand why he didn't think it was useful. That was, until I tried it. He was right, it didn't work. The hook was designed incorrectly and the thing wouldn't grab a log to enable lifting/rolling it. Cut it apart and welded in a piece to correct the orientation. NOW, it works. I'm thinking of giving it back to him. It had a screw together handle and that was continuously coming loose so it got a spot of weld on it too. I don't understand how companies can manufacture junk that doesn't work. Don't they test stuff before approving the design??
