I just tested a embedded pic. Worked for me. See if it works on your end now.

I want to be able to 1 hand and use 2 hands if heavy to move a bigger one.    I am just thinking of all the downed trees I was cutting last year and having to move to hill side to roll down to bottom.  Make it easier on the ole back here.

I need one to roll logs over when milling. Be much easier than using a big bar.

I have a Peavey I bought from TSC and a two man grapple from Northern.

Looks like the same Chinese company made them both?  They work just fine. The handles are that Far Eastern pine.

Not homemade even though I had thought on cutting up a axe. Finally broke down and just bought one to try. I mean how can you go wrong for 20 at Menards. 28" handle.
