Well the peavy that I made I broke one of the joints on it when trying to roll a 36" round.    I had to weld it back together and put some reinforcements on the sides.   Works ok now.   

One thing I have noticed about this peavy I made is that because I made the hook rather large I have found it to work really good on large logs but on small ones in the 12" to 14" range it does not hook very well.   I may have to make a smaller version for rolling small diameter but very long logs.
