This video demonstrates and explains how you can make a powerful winch from only a rope and two strong cuts of wood.\u00a0 This can be used to remove a stump as the video shows, free a stuck vehicle, or assist in safely felling a tree in a direction you choose.\u00a0 The technique is easiest with two people, so that someone is holding each piece of wood at all times for safety, but you can also use two stakes if you are by yourself.\u00a0 The stakes should be placed in-line, perpendicular to the object being moved, and on the side of the anchor object, this will prevent the wooden levers from moving as the tension grows.<\/p>\n
