 My new 60" logrite peavey was delivered today. Does it count as a Christmas present if you bought it for yourself?

Absolutely. But if you bought it for your wife, no. :D

I'd gladly give it to her if she'd use it! Unfortunately when we divided up the chores, log turning was on my list. 🤣

I bought a 60 inch logrite cant hook as well for myself for Christmas  in October (that's a real holiday right?) Very glad I made the purchase.  I had just finished  whacking myself in the face with the handle of the 48 inch wood handled Chinese knock off I bought before I had my sawmill. It knocked some sense into me and the logrite was ordered that night!

I recognize that box. Yours looks like it arrived in a lot better shape than mine did.

It took 2 times for mine to show up in usable condition. Rough handling by UPS but Cooks was fantastic and took care of everything.

I got the 72" cant. Makes rolling the big logs easier and any prying too. Plus I picked up a dirt cheap used (50's?) 18" log turner.
