This video is short to keep the Verizon folks from charging me for overage but it should give you an idea how it works. Please feel free to ask any questions as this thing works amazing.

Looks Good! Yea they do work pretty good, I wanted one so I built one a couple years ago and It works great! Really takes the strain out of pullin long heavy logs.

I like the sliding hook so that, when you start pulling, it lifts the butt of the log off the ground. No lifting winch required. Nice job, both guys. Someday I must build one myself.

Also makes for a great brake - when you stop the tow vehicle, if the log keeps going, it will slide down until it hits the ground and stop.

A few pictures of the arch I built to use behind the ski-doo.
