Log Holder
A couple years ago I decided there had to be a better way to support logs at a comfortable height for cutting them into fire-wood. I experimented and came up with a device that takes all the wrestling out of firewood-cutting. I'm now manufacturing two models of the patent-pending device which I call the "Log-Hawg". One's a receiver hitch mountable version (Model R), the other a free-standing version (Model FS). Both models consist of a steel frame that holds logs 30 in. off the ground. They have a stair step-like jaw that permits holding logs from 3 to 12 in. in dia. and up to 12 ft. long, of a weight the average man can lift. You can cut wood about twice as fast because you're not spending half your time moving logs. Both models are fully portable so you can cut wood quickly and comfortably any-where. Model R weighs 17 lbs. and sells for $119.95. Model FS weighs 42 lbs. and sells for $139.95.
