    It's along the same line as the bottle jack method. But I've done neither.

    Interesting.

    walt interested to hear your thoughts on that...I would be worried about it slipping either off the tree or the ground. I wouldn’t think you could feel very comfortable.

    Never seen one of those before. Cool concept, but I'd be worried about a large/heavy back leaner rolling right off that thing.

    Never seen a pusher but I was more impressed with how he had his winch set up and pulled that tree over with a lean in the opposite direction.

    Can't see that it helped him much he had wedges set then used the winch to pull it past center.
